Compromise of 1850 Growing tension over issue of slavery Divisions over territory gained during Mexican- American War California= free Utah/New Mexico= TBD And one more very important law…

Fugitive Slave LAW of 1850 ANY black, even free blacks, could be sent to the south Punished officials who didn’t arrest a runaway slave Everyone must assist in the capture of escapees Slaves couldn’t ask for a jury trial or testify Friends/family couldn’t testify on their behalf Commissioner was paid $10 for returned slave, but $5 if freed

Fugitive Slave LAW of 1850 Slave owners needed only to supply an affidavit to a Federal marshal to capture an escaped slave. So…the law resulted in the kidnapping and conscription of free blacks into slavery Children particularly vulnerable Impossible to know how many free African- Americans were forced into slavery in this way
