Slavery Grows in the South

Abolitionist Movement Many religious groups in Western Europe and in the United States started to question the morality of slavery Many different ways of fighting slavery Tried to change state and federal laws Creation of the Underground Railroad Lawsuits challenging the constitutionality of slavery As westward expansion continued, the debate over the future of slavery grew

Underground Railroad

Growing Pains Westward Expansion = the debate over slavery heats up Power struggle = free states vs. slave states Admit one free state for every slave state Missouri Compromise = Southern boundary of Missouri would be the dividing line 1 st of many compromises that would try and hold the US together
