Missouri Compromise 1820

Impact of Westward Expansion Can the government control the expansion of slavery? Property constitutionally protected What about states’ rights? Terrorties are not yet states Upsetting the balance between free and slave states

1 st compromise dealing with slavery extending westward. Missouri wanted to enter as a slave state Would have upset the balance between free and slave states—in the Senate 1.Missouri comes in as slave state 2.Maine comes in as a free state 3.36’ 30 line established—North of this line free, south of this line slave

Mexican-American War 1848

Events that Contribute to the Civil War

Compromise of California free statee 2.New Mexico and Utah—popular sovereignty –citizens can vote on slave issue 3.D.C. slave trade banned 4.Could still own slaves in D.C. 5.Fugitive Slave Law--

1852-—publication of Uncle Tom’s Cabin -- Harriet Beecher Stowe Why significant---for the 1 st time many Northerners were exposed to the horrors of slavery. It was a major bestseller—sold 300,000 copies in just 1 year Southerners HATED it. Said the book was all lies.

The Kansas-Nebraska Act—1854 Stephan Douglas introduced a bill in Congress to organize the Kansas and Nebraska territories into separate states. His bill allowed for popular sovereignty on the issue of slavery in these new territories.

This legislation angers Northerners because it opens the door to slavery above the 36 degree 30’ line. Violence soon erupted in Kansas—as anti- slavery zealots and pro-slavery zealots poured into Kansas to influence the voting. “Border Ruffians” –pro-slavery guys from Missouri attack anti-slavery people and vote illegally in the Kansas elections By territorial govts are in Kansas— Anti-Slavery and Pro-Slavery

Beecher’s Bibles Given to Antislavery People who were going to Kansas

500 Border Ruffians attacked the Anti-Slavery town of Lawrence, Kansas Abolitionist John Brown sought revenge by hacking 6 proslavery men to death at the Proslavery town of Pottowattamie Creek, Kansas

Terrorist or Martyr

Violence in the Senate Brooks beats Sen. Sumner with a cane over an insult to his uncle.

Politics of the 1850s The issue of slavery and the conflicts throughout the 1850s split the political parties—Whigs and Democrats. Think about the difficulty of having a political party that appeals to both Northerners and Southerners.

New Political Parties Formed Know-Nothing Party (American Party) Anti-Immigrant Had to live in U.S. 25 years before Citizenship was given Anti-Catholic Pro-Slavery

Free-Soil Party— 1.Opposed the spread of slavery Why? Believed the spread of slavery would force white workers to compete with slaves for jobs.

1854-Republican Party was formed. Party Platform 1.Oppose the spread of slavery into western territories. 2.Opposed the Kansas-Nebraska Act 3.Wanted to reinstate the Missouri Compromise

Election of 1856-James Buchanan wanted the Supreme Court to decide once and for all on the issue of slavery 1857—Dred Scott Decision Dred Scott was a slave whose owner took him from the slave state of Missouri to the free state of Illinois and free territory of WI. Scott appealed to the Supreme Court for his freedom on the grounds that living in a free state had made him a free man.

Supreme Court was composed mostly of Southerners Ruled against Dred Scott Reasons 1.Lacked any standing to sue because he was not nor could he ever be a citizen. 2.Free territory did not make a slave free 3.5 th Amendment protected property—for territories to exclude slavery would be to deprive slaveholders of their property.

Southerners felt like they had won the battle Believe the ruling not only permitted the extension of slavery but guaranteed it. Northerners were outraged by the decision— proved to them the “slaveocracy” was real. This decision would open the door to slavery everywhere in the country Would void the Northwest Ordinance, and Missouri Compromise
