John Brown and Abolition 1850-1860

Abolitionism- The effort to get rid of slavery Spread in North Frederick Douglass: runaway slave who became abolitionist leader William Lloyd Garrison: editor of abolitionist newspaper, The Liberator Underground Railroad: elaborate network of white abolitionists, free blacks and slaves (not only Harriet Tubman) Total number of fugitives assisted by the UGR 1830-1860 was between 70,000 and 100,000

Compromise of 1850 California wanted to be a free state The South had assumed it wouldn’t be and was upset it was As a compromise, California would enter the Union as a free state with the condition that Utah and New Mexico would vote on slavery Fugitive Slave Law – meant to appease South, many Northerners felt it turned them into slave-catchers

Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1854 Proposed by Stephen Douglas People in Nebraska Territory would vote on whether to have slavery or not (popular sovereignty). Sounded like a sound compromise, but it upset some anti-slavery forces Freesoilers (poor farmers who couldn’t compete with slave-owners), and pro-slavery forces streamed in Mini civil war: “Bleeding Kansas”

Political Cartoon, 1856
