1 Sectionalism Standard Indicator 8-4.2

2 What is sectionalism? A: Restriction of interest to a narrow sphere; undue concern with local interests or petty distinctions at the expense of general well-being. How did this come about? Sectional differences & Geographic locations

3 Differences North developed as a trading region of small farmers South developed as a plantation system North slowly emancipated all of their slaves through laws after the Revolutionary War South became more reliant on slave labor due to the cotton gin Different interests resulted in a two-party system…..Do you remember them?

4 The South Grows By the 1720’s, slave population surpassed the white population in the south After the end of international slave trade – the slave population continued to grow b/c of high birth rate & smuggling This high growing population caused fear of a slave revolt

5 The Denmark Vesey Plot Slave Codes- Stono Rebellion Nat Turner Rebellion in Virginia was similar Fear of northern political holds- leaving the south with a large black population that could not be controlled Slaves Fought Back: Denmark Vesey – Slaves Fought Back: Denmark Vesey – “Take Notes” (6:00)

6 Abolitionists Movement Goal: to outlaw slavery throughout the US Abolitionists who were active in SC before the Denmark Vesey plot, were forced to leave the state or stay silent Movement grew with publications of Anti-Slavery newspapers (The Liberator-William Lloyd Garrison) SC postmasters removed Anti-Slavery or controversial items from mail delivery Southern slavery a “positive good” vs. Northern “wage slaves” Abolitionists play a role in all the incidents that further caused tension between the North & South

7 Northern Economy & Politics Northern industry attracted European immigrants High immigration resulted in the North having larger representation in the House of Representatives Whigs (Former Federalists) Result of northern representation caused the south to push for rigorous admission of new states as slave states to balance out the number of slave and free states in Senate
