The Causes of the Civil War Part Two: “Bleeding Kansas” & Dred Scott

A divided nation Despite the recent success with the Compromise of 1850, slavery still divided the North and South. The South was determined to block any moves in Congress that the North tried to make.

A divided nation Tensions between abolitionists and people who supported slavery was high Why don’t you Yankees worry about yourselves? Slavery is wrong, no matter how you look at it!

The Kansas-Nebraska Act In order to pass a simple act to reorganize the territories, Senator Stephen Douglas had to appeal to the South. The Act spilt Kansas and Nebraska into two territories.

The Kansas-Nebraska Act In order to get it passed, the law also repealed the Missouri Compromise. The issue of slavery in Kansas would be decided by popular sovereignty (voting.)

“Bleeding Kansas” In order to swing the vote, abolitionists and slavery supporters moved to Kansas.

Abolitionist Pro-Slavery “Bleeding Kansas” The pro-slavery side won the first territorial government elections. The abolitionist side rejected the results, and made their own government. Abolitionist Pro-Slavery

“Bleeding Kansas” A pro-slavery mob raided the offices of the abolitionist government.

Don’t forget this face! I promise you’ll see me again! “Bleeding Kansas” To get revenged, John Brown and seven others murdered some of his pro-slavery neighbors. Don’t forget this face! I promise you’ll see me again!

Dred Scott v. Sandford Dred Scott lived in Missouri, and his master moved with him to a free territory. After his owner’s death, Dred Scott sued for his freedom.

Dred Scott v. Sandford The Supreme Court ruled that Dred Scott was not a citizen, and had no right to sue.

Dred Scott v. Sandford The Court also said that Congress could not ban slavery, because that would violate property rights.

One nation, under slavery. . . The Aftermath. . . The South loved the ruling, but the North felt that the Democrats were trying to make slavery legal across the country . . . One nation, under slavery. . .

The Aftermath . . . The North would turn to a new political party, and it’s unlikely leader, for help. . .
