Sec 2: Bloodshed in Kansas

After the Compromise of 1850, Northern abolitionists continue to attack slavery. In reaction to the Fugitive Slave Law of 1850, Northern States pass personal liberty laws to counteract it. Harriet Tubman conducts more than 300 slaves to freedom on the Underground Railroad. Harriet Beecher Stowe writes Uncle Tom’s Cabin which describes the evils of slavery. REVIEW: Pro-slavery vs. Anti-slavery Forces Heat-up!

FIND OUT What events made the issue of slavery emerge yet again in 1854? Why did pro-slavery and anti-slavery forces move into Kansas? How did the Dred Scott decision divide the nation?

The Kansas-Nebraska Act…(p.327) Proposed by Senator Stephen Douglas of Illinois. The Act would… Divide Nebraska Territory into Nebraska and Kansas. Repeal the Missouri Compromise in order to allow slavery north of the line. Establish popular sovereignty (let each state decide) in both territories. Passes in 1852.

Douglas thought that popular sovereignty offered the fairest, most democratic way to admit new states. He also believed that the Nebraska Territory would enter the Union as two states (one slave and one free) maintaining the North-South balance. …The Kansas-Nebraska Act (p.327)

Divided Kansas Settlers and fanatics from both sides poured into Kansas to cast votes on the issue of slavery. Fraudulent elections led to the establishment of two state governments. One free One Slave

TIME TO RUMBLE!

First shots fired in 1856 when pro-slavery men raid Lawrence, Kansas destroying homes and smashing the press of the Free Soil newspaper. Abolitionist John Brown with four sons and two others, rides to the town of Pottawatomie Creek. Brown kills five pro-slavery supporters in the name of GOD. Newspapers everywhere labeled the territory “Bleeding Kansas.” By the end of 1856, 200 people killed. The First Shots

Bloodshed in the Senate (p.329)

Dred Scott lived for many years in Missouri (Slave State). Later, he moved to Illinois with his master (Non-Slave State) and also, Wisconsin (Non- Slave State). They move back to Missouri and his master dies. Dred Scott Decision (p.330)

Anti-Slavery lawyers file lawsuit in Mr. Scott’s name. The argument: Since Scott had lived in free territory, he was a free man… right?

U.S. Supreme Court decides: Scott could not file a lawsuit because as a black man he was not a citizen. Agreed that slaves were property. Congress did not have the power to outlaw slavery in any territory. Meant the Missouri Compromise was unconstitutional. This meant that slavery was legal in all territories!!! The Dred Scott Decision of 1857

Northerners are mad! Southerners are happy!

WE FOUND OUT The issue of slavery emerged again in Name these events we talked about today? Pro-slavery and anti-slavery forces moved into Kansas. Why? The Dred Scott decision divided the nation. How so?
