Jim Crow was not a president, senator, or congressman; he was not even a local figure of power. Jim Crow
was a minstrel show character portrayed most famously by T. D. “Daddy” Rice in the early 19th century;
however, there is absolutely no doubt that this fictional personification of racism and subjugation ranks among
the most influential icons of the American antebellum period, and is still recognizable today. "I wheel about an'
turn about And do jis' so And ebry time I wheel about I jump Jim Crow," T. D. "Daddy" Rice (as cited in
“Antebellum Period Quotes,” n.d., para. 1).
From the earliest days of the American colonies, amongst the feelings of unification, freedom from unlawful
taxation, and desire to self-govern, there were also feelings of great division and entitlement across the
American settlements. So far we have discussed several of these debates, but the one that has remained
constant is the question of what freedom really meant.
Even today, in America there are conflicting teachings of what the true catalysts of the Civil War were. For the
South, the “War of Northern Aggression” was a direct attack by subjecting the southern economy for the pure
benefit of northern industry, which threatened the agricultural way of life and virtues that Jefferson had
represented so famously. As we will review later, however, slavery was not a universal good for all
Southerners; in fact, in the years leading up to and during the war there were well established regions of anti-
slavery sentiment in every future Confederate state, save one: South Carolina.
For the North, with the exception of the few wealthy outliers who benefitted from the transport and sale of
Southern goods, slavery was becoming understood more and more clearly as an unnecessary evil, one which
had already been banned in allied nations. Even Alexis de Tocqueville, ...

2. Slavery became deeply entrenched in the South between 1815-1840. Southerners believed blacks were dependent and could never be citizens, while slavery upheld their society. Small farmers also supported slavery to maintain their way of life.

2. In 1800, most Americans made their living as farmers.
3. The governor of Virginia blamed Nat Turner's slave revolt on Northern anti-slavery opinion.
This dissertation examines the economics of plantation slavery in the United States between the 17th-19th centuries. A literature review methodology is used due to difficulties analyzing agricultural data from slave and free states. The literature is mixed, with some arguing slavery lacked efficiency and hindered economic development through soil depletion and lack of specialization. However, large plantations remained profitable, though profits primarily benefited wealthy owners. Abolishing slavery may have encouraged a more motivated workforce and greater investment, benefiting all. Key debates center around comparing slave and free agriculture, slavery's impact on non-slaveholding whites, and the post-Civil War economic exposure of the South.

Question one
1.
Discuss the role of federal legislation in accelerating and shaping the course of westward expansion
In 1862, a law was passed under Homestead Act and Dawes Act of 1887, led to the support of transcontinental railroad construction and federal government regulation legislation of timber and water usage which urged people to migrate westward. Like Dawes Act sought to replace the communal ownership of land to private plots of land to the Native Americans. The government regulation of resources like the timber and water in the west made people migrate to the west.
2.
How did the incorporation of western territories into United States affect Indian nations such as the Sioux or the Nez Perce? Discuss the consequences of the Indian wars. Discuss the significance of reservation policy and the Dawes severalty act for tribal life
The discovery of valuable minerals like gold and silver which made people migrate to the westwards thereby bringing in settlers which resulted in violent confrontation by the Indians nations such as The Sioux and Nez Perces who did not want the push to reservations by the government which made the government to use US army which defeated them and gave in later. The Dawes Act advocated for private property on reservations from communal ownership which had over sixty percent of land taken by whites from Indians reserved land.
3.
What were some of the major technological advances in mining and in agriculture that promoted development of western economy
The technology advancement in mining was the hydraulic mining and on agriculture was the “singing plow” and the McCormick reaper. In mining, the new technology allowed deep mining of the earth at a relatively cheaper economic cost, while on the agriculture, it allowed the farmers to plow and harvest large acreage of land with the constant number of labor.
4.
Describe the unique features of Mexicano communities in the south-west before and after the mass immigration of the Anglos. How did changes in the economy affect the patterns of labor and status of women in these communities
The Mexicano communities in the southwest before mass immigration occupied the borderland which is between Mexico and United States. Initially, they worked maintaining their unique identity. During immigration where there was a rise of local elites among them both who were the Anglo and Mexicano lead to exiling of the poor Mexican out. The changes in the economy made them look for seasonal labor in the elite farms and ranches and others sought railroad and mining industries jobs. The women experienced domestic violence and only women from elite families were married to immigrants from United States for land possessions.

Scenario
Development of a relational database system for a food producing company
FoodRU is a Leicester-based food producing company. The company wants to keep details regarding both past and present employees and their assignment to shifts over time. At present, there are three defined shift patterns; the morning shift starts at 6am and finishes at 2pm, the day shift starts at 9am and finishes at 5pm, and the evening shift starts at 4pm and finishes at 12am (midnight). However, management have already indicated that they may need to add further shift patterns in the future (e.g., by adding a night shift to the existing ones so that the company can meet a high user demand for their foods). They therefore require shift details to be stored within a separate Shift table, with attributes that allow the storage of a shift name with its associated start and finish times (use the 24 hour clock for these times).
Past and present employee details are to be kept in the same Employee table, and the details to be kept are the employee’s unique 6 digit reference number, the first name, surname and any other names (if there are any) of the employee, the employee’s gender, contact address and contact telephone, the date on which the employee started his/her employment at the company and the date on which the employee finished his/her employment at the company (should s/he be a past employee). Details regarding staff assignments to shifts include the date that an employee was allocated to work a particular shift, and the date that s/he was taken off the shift (if not still assigned to it). Employees can be assigned to different shifts over time and even to the same shift over different time periods, although they cannot be assigned to more than one shift at any one time. A new employee may not yet be assigned to a shift.
Tasks:
1. Provide the table specifications for the THREE tables that are required by FoodRU to store employee, shift and assignment details. That is, for each of the three tables, you should provide, in a suitable presentation format, the name of the table and a specification of each its attributes to include:
• Attribute name
• Attribute brief description as to its meaning
• a description of the attribute’s data type/integrity (e.g., date field, character field of length 20, number field <= 10, etc. – you can use the Oracle data types within these descriptions if you want to)
• An indication as to whether the attribute is a primary key attribute and/or foreign key attribute
• An indication as to whether the attribute can or cannot take null values
Make sure your design specifies the appropriate links between the three tables. Remember to write down any additional integrity you need to enforce either at a specific table level or across two or more tables, if this is required. Also, remember to write down any justifications for the data types/integrity or for any other design features that.

I think that with regulation of the mosquito communities would be a good thing. Mosquitos carry many dangerous diseases and if we can lower the population we can slow the rate of transmission of these diseases. This could save many many lives around the world. I would be hesitant though to release the genetically engineered mosquitos into the environment. In the article I read they releases sterile male mosquitos into the environment. This I feel is a safer way to regulate because we are not altering any genes we are just regulating a naturally occurring issue in nature. Sterile males cannot pass on the genes and also male mosquitos are not the ones who would be likely to pass on the diseases. The article stated that only females bite and therefore males would not be capable of spreading the diseases. With sterile males being released there will be less mosquitos due to lack of repopulation. This will still allow organisms relying on mosquitos for food to still be able to survive with less risk to humans. They are an invasive species so it would help to eliminate the spread of mosquitos to different areas. This will keep the spread of disease throughout areas. I do not think it is right to alter the genes for human use though. It is not how nature had intended. If the gene pops up naturally in the population then it should not be taken out but we should not introduce it due to humans "playing God" with genetics.

Parent Involvement Plan This week you will create a Parent Involve.docxMARRY7
Parent Involvement Plan
This week you will create a Parent Involvement Plan in response to the following scenario:
Imagine you are working with infant, toddler and preschool aged children in a child care center. The majority of the children has special needs and receives early intervention or are on an IEP. Many of the children’s parents work two jobs and have a difficult time participating in the center's activities. Whenever the center plans an event, the parental involvement is lower than desired. The center has tried to increase parental involvement through such methods as calling to remind parents and sending home notices, but is not having any luck.
Your assignment is to create a Parental Involvement Plan to encourage better participation from parents. Follow these steps to develop your plan:
Step 1:
Identify the issue, discuss your beliefs about the situation, and formulate conclusions and offer suggestions to the director of the child care center.
Step 2:
Create a Parent Involvement Plan that your director can copy and paste into the employee and parent handbook. Your plan should include:
The importance of early intervention and individual educational plans
Ways to assist students and their families
The importance of parent involvement
Please use the template provided and your rubric as your guide to completing this assignment.

Development of a relational database system for a food producing company
FoodRU is a Leicester-based food producing company. The company wants to keep details regarding both past and present employees and their assignment to shifts over time. At present, there are three defined shift patterns; the morning shift starts at 6am and finishes at 2pm, the day shift starts at 9am and finishes at 5pm, and the evening shift starts at 4pm and finishes at 12am (midnight). However, management have already indicated that they may need to add further shift patterns in the future (e.g., by adding a night shift to the existing ones so that the company can meet a high user demand for their foods). They therefore require shift details to be stored within a separate Shift table, with attributes that allow the storage of a shift name with its associated start and finish times (use the 24 hour clock for these times).
Past and present employee details are to be kept in the same Employee table, and the details to be kept are the employee’s unique 6 digit reference number, the first name, surname and any other names (if there are any) of the employee, the employee’s gender, contact address and contact telephone, the date on which the employee started his/her employment at the company and the date on which the employee finished his/her employment at the company (should s/he be a past employee).

Parent Involvement Plan This week you will create a Parent Involve.docxMARRY7
Parent Involvement Plan
This week you will create a Parent Involvement Plan in response to the following scenario:
Imagine you are working with infant, toddler and preschool aged children in a child care center. The majority of the children has special needs and receives early intervention or are on an IEP. Many of the children’s parents work two jobs and have a difficult time participating in the center's activities. Whenever the center plans an event, the parental involvement is lower than desired. The center has tried to increase parental involvement through such methods as calling to remind parents and sending home notices, but is not having any luck.
Your assignment is to create a Parental Involvement Plan to encourage better participation from parents. Follow these steps to develop your plan:
Step 1:
Identify the issue, discuss your beliefs about the situation, and formulate conclusions and offer suggestions to the director of the child care center.
Step 2:
Create a Parent Involvement Plan that your director can copy and paste into the employee and parent handbook. Your plan should include:
The importance of early intervention and individual educational plans
Ways to assist students and their families
The importance of parent involvement
Please use the template provided and your rubric as your guide to completing this assignment.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...indexPub
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.

Unit Lesson
Jim Crow was not a president, senator, or congressman; he was
not even a local figure of power. Jim Crow
was a minstrel show character portrayed most famously by T. D.
“Daddy” Rice in the early 19th century;
however, there is absolutely no doubt that this fictional
personification of racism and subjugation ranks among
the most influential icons of the American antebellum period,
and is still recognizable today. "I wheel about an'
turn about And do jis' so And ebry time I wheel about I jump
Jim Crow," T. D. "Daddy" Rice (as cited in
“Antebellum Period Quotes,” n.d., para. 1).
From the earliest days of the American colonies, amongst the
feelings of unification, freedom from unlawful
taxation, and desire to self-govern, there were also feelings of
great division and entitlement across the
American settlements. So far we have discussed several of these
debates, but the one that has remained
constant is the question of what freedom really meant.
Even today, in America there are conflicting teachings of what
3. the true catalysts of the Civil War were. For the
South, the “War of Northern Aggression” was a direct attack by
subjecting the southern economy for the pure
benefit of northern industry, which threatened the agricultural
way of life and virtues that Jefferson had
represented so famously. As we will review later, however,
slavery was not a universal good for all
Southerners; in fact, in the years leading up to and during the
war there were well established regions of anti-
slavery sentiment in every future Confederate state, save one:
South Carolina.
For the North, with the exception of the few wealthy outliers
who benefitted from the transport and sale of
Southern goods, slavery was becoming understood more and
more clearly as an unnecessary evil, one which
had already been banned in allied nations. Even Alexis de
Tocqueville, a French political observer, noted how
obvious the slavery question was in the ongoing disputes
between the two sides as early as 1831. However,

4. just as labor was a question in the South, so it would be in the
North as well, but in a different way: what
would the immediate growth of the American population by
hundreds of thousands of former slaves looking
for any kind of work do to the already overcrowded unskilled
labor pool growing daily by immigrants?
The one major question which plagued anti-slavery advocates
on both sides was straightforward enough: was
abolition beneficial to the future of the growing American
citizenry? Could slavery be abolished without
jeopardizing the American dream (Johnson, 2012, doc. 14-2 and
14-3)? Pondering this question, we turn our
focus to the antebellum era in the visibly divided South. As we
left off in the last unit, with the success of the
market and transportation revolutions, the focus of the nation
was the American West, and like almost
everything, there were two clear political agendas requiring the
attention of the voting public.
Perhaps an argument can be made, though unfairly, that Eli
Whitney should be blamed for the growth of
slavery in the 19th century. His 1793 Cotton Gin
(http://www.archives.gov/education/lessons/cotton-gin-
patent/), whose simplistic function was to comb tiny, sticky,
green seeds from the white fibers, can be
considered the tool that made cotton production profitable, so
much so that the Southeast United States (now
an appropriate label) was dubbed by many as a cotton kingdom.
This crop was not new to the plantation
owners; cotton was a luxury for any who could afford it because
at one time it was too slow and labor
intensive to justify the otherwise rich farm land necessary.
From this rapid sale and development, new territories emerged
throughout the nation, but it was the Southern
5. states that caused significant concerns on the federal level. The
annexation of Texas soon spread into
population development in Arkansas and other areas of prime
cotton growth. Now so outrageously lucrative
with Whitney’s invention, areas that could grow the crop,
generally those below the Mason-Dixon Line,
rebounded. Many of these regions had suffered from an
economic lull caused by better technologies and
exhausted soil in previous decades. The need for inexpensive,
unskilled labor led to the shipment of over a
million new laborers from Africa by 1860, more than doubling
the slave population and numbering three out of
four people in the South, a number that shattered the statistics
from the Middle Passage. The question quickly
became whether a state would be a slave or free state; this is a
discussion that we will pick up again later with
the Missouri Compromise.
By the 1820s, the South had already dealt with significant
assaults on the culture and labor question, most of
which were blamed exclusively on the increasing northern
industrial base. In order to ensure the continued
demand and need for slave labor, the laws of many southern
states would evolve to include a series of laws
called the slave codes which, in short, legalized ideas and
actions of white superiority and black inferiority.
These laws provided owners complete and total rights (Johnson,
2012, doc. 13-2) to treat their slaves as
nothing other than a working tool, or perhaps more
appropriately, livestock. With few exceptions, owners
decided every aspect of a slave’s life, including relationships,
food, shelter, clothing, and even if the slaves
would share basic commonalities, like language, which became
a major concern after a pattern of rebellions,
such as Nat Turner’s Raid (Roark, Johnson, Cohen, Stage, &
Hartmann, 2014, p. 334), had previously
6. ravaged slave owning communities.
Ways in which this treatment was regulated had many sides. On
the farm, the three most common forms of
labor would be field labor (by a wide margin), house labor
(which grew in popularity first in all colonies), and
finally artisan labor for those with a skill. Artisan roles can be
somewhat misleading by name only, for many
this meant the slaves had shown an exceptional talent with a
skill or necessary job that benefitted their
masters financially—like carpentry, mechanics, or working with
livestock. For some this would mean actually
being loaned out to people in need in exchange for a stipend to
the master, and for others, their work would
remain closer to the plantation. This position was generally
southern focused for a few reasons, including that
high migrations led to labor needs, slaves were a threat to even
low paying opportunities, and because many
of the southern laws concerning slaves were not followed or
respected in northern states.
House slaves may sound initially like the preferred situation of
the three; these slaves stayed in the master’s
house, would generally serve as cooks, caretakers, maids, and
child care, and were fed and clothed
appropriately. This, however, was usually only a public face.
All too often, the house labor was dominated by
females, depending on the required skill, and especially in
houses with many men, unique abuses were
committed varying from verbal to physical or even sexual abuse
(Johnson, 2012, doc. 13-1) In houses with a
master and wife, infidelity (Roark et al., 2014, p. 345) by the
master could lead to negative reaction by the
wife (Johnson, 2012, doc. 13-3) toward the slave as well,
causing unwanted contact to lead to additional
physical harm. Perhaps the most heinous fate for these women
7. (all too often young girls) was a complete
separation from their families and communities of support,
described below. It is not so hard to believe then

Title
that these house slaves were generally found to be the most
likely to attempt to flee (Johnson, 2012, doc. 14-
4)—especially in cases of chaos or danger from the work of
anti-slavery advocates.
Approximately three out of four slaves would be the more
recognizable field workers. In the lower South, for
example, where planting would last for 9-10 months of the year,
these laborers would work from day break to
dusk with only a break for lunch, and maybe some opportunities
for hydration, depending on the master. At
night, however, this community would remain together, and for
some, a community was built. Food wise, most
were given only scraps of unwanted meat from the master’s
kitchen and either cornmeal or rice (as they were
often the cheapest available staples) to eat, but the community
made sure man, woman, and child were fed.
This was important for the master as well when he needed his
labor to be fit for work to guarantee a return on
8. investment.
These communities served other purposes as well; as a
community of family, a child, whether he or she had a
mother or father or not, would call other slaves names like
brother, sister, aunt, and uncle. Some masters
even allowed slave marriages, though it was because it was
deemed beneficial as an agent to calm the more
dangerous men and potentially breed new slaves. Individual
families that were split up due to sale or death
would know that their child was in loving hands, even if not
their own. The community was also a way to
ensure that important lessons were passed on about heritage and
life skills; some of the best known of the
stories survive as spiritual hymns or folktales.
Perhaps the most famous collection of these folktales is Joel
Chandler Harris’s anthology, titled Uncle Remus
and Brer Rabbit (“Brother Rabbit”). These allegories were
especially popular with children, white and black, as
the main characters were general representations of outrageous
attitudes personified by common animals
recognizable in the Chesapeake and lower South; these included
Br’er B’ar, the dim-witted strong man; Br’er
Fox, the devious schemer; Br’er Wolf, the overly aggressive
enforcer; and finally Br’er Rabbit, the trickster
and hero. Even the narrator was painted as a jolly, soft-spoken,
Uncle Tom (Roark et al., 2014, p. 365) type
character which may have reminded the audience of a particular
person, or persons, in the community. While
seen as harmless entertainment by masters, these were often
stories of survival, quick thinking, and problem
solving that were of realistic significance for children learning
to survive a slave’s life. The Harris collection
retained its popularity through much of the 20th century, even
being turned into a Disney movie called Song
9. of the South, and both it and the book were only removed from
common circulation with recent advances in
the removal of hate speech and growth of tolerance in the last
few decades.
The masters also played an important part in the spread of the
Second Great Awakening. Slaves were often
dressed and brought to the master’s church, where they were
segregated to the back or balcony and taught
sermons about obedience and warped views of how slavery
benefitted the greatest empires and how even
biblical heroes were slave masters. Also, this was a platform to
instill the ideas of sin, especially
miscegenation (Roark et al., 2014, p. 336), which masters hoped
would protect their way of life and help the
masters secure a public sense of honor and chivalry (Roark et
al., 2014, p. 344), even if it was not true in
private. Also appealing was that Sundays were commonly days
of rest, and sometimes even church festivals,
like Christmas, worked in the master’s favor as reasons to
provide an off-season time of rest.
A separate community of faith would emerge on the plantation,
however, as slaves would develop their own
practicing religion, often in secret, and led by free men who
found their ways onto the plantation. Slave
services were led to spread stories of freedom from oppression
and provide some opportunity to impart parts
of the African culture into American generations. Songs of
Moses leading his people and individual histories
were also very popular to raise the spirits of the often
subjugated and downtrodden. It was from these secret
services that many modern traditions would emerge, including
the spiritual type of song/chant, some of the
more passionate dances, and zealous outcries which are still
seen in many revivalist congregations. The call
10. to these meetings was double edged, however. In the wake of
rebellions and rising anti-slavery sentiment,
owners often feared large, spirited gatherings of slaves, which
are why most of these plantation services were
held only in secret. Even then, such congregation only fueled
the belief of the need for laws and codes to arm
the master against potential uprisings, like that of Nat Turner
(Roark et al., 2014, pp. 332-333; Johnson, 2012,
doc. 13-4).
Under the new slave codes, the white plantation master had all
of the power that the law needed to provide
him to act on the idea of white superiority under a veil of
paternalism (Roark et al., 2014, p. 342; Johnson,
2012, doc. 13-5); notable quotes of the time include the
following from Thomas R. Dew, a Virginia planter:
HY 1110, American History I 4
UNIT x STUDY GUIDE
Title
“the slaves of a good master are his warmest, most constant, and
most devoted friends” (as cited by Roark et
al., 2014, p. 337, para. 1).
While there are records of some slaves being treated with
respect and kindness, generally this was on
smaller farms as a part of a family without the luxury of
numerous offspring. Overwhelmingly, the horrific
11. abuses on the plantation cast light on the horrors that slavery
and legalized ownership of another human
brought, no matter the job, position, or location. For these
owners, they believed that the institution of slavery
was a blessing that removed class warfare, but the truth is that
only elites could afford that lifestyle; even in
the booming South, where cash crops supplied the vast majority
of its exports, only one in four families could
afford slaves, and little more than one in ten actually had the
means for an iconic plantation house and
assorted mills. As we will see, though slavery would be one of
the essential elements of a prosperous
Southern economy, the slavery question was becoming as
divided in the South as it was in the North;
however, there was still one big difference. The Southern
reliance on slavery was growing, while the mixed
economy and rapid work demands shunned the practice in the
North almost entirely.
As hinted at previously, as significant as the slave system was
for the southern economy, and as drastic as
the population statistics politicized the voice of plantation
owners, three out of four white citizens, including a
high number of farmers and those dependent on agriculture,
actually did not own slaves. Some of these
farmers were lower class, others lived in terrain that was not
sufficient for plantation style farming, and many
simply did not agree with the idea of owning another person. In
addition, despite the rural agrarian structure,
there were growing cities in the South that echoed the same
basic needs found in cities in the North. Still,
abolition was dreadful idea to be considered by most
Southerners; even if not directly, the cash crop was the
life-blood of any town, and the concerns raised by abolitionists
were met with great apprehension.
12. Though cotton was king in the South, just as there had been
both a Chesapeake (upper South) and lower
South during the tobacco craze, again there was a geological
and climatic divide in the Southern territory. The
plantation belt was just as it sounds: the inland plains from
South Carolina to Texas that provided the most
opportune region for cotton growth. Towards the sea, other
traditional crops like rice were still grown as well
as it was a relatively cheap staple and would feed many of the
inland slaves. The Chesapeake region would
be renamed the Upcountry, which now is probably best
recognized as the Appellation Mountain range,
stretching along north Georgia, Tennessee, North Carolina, and
Virginia. This would be more geared toward
the growth of produce, and still in some areas, tobacco.
For these non-plantation Southerners, still separated from any
large urban areas, there was still a strong
devotion and call toward the revivalist congregations,
community get-togethers, and opportunities to shop
their wares and meet the neighbors. Education, which was
already beginning to spread in areas like Boston
(as discussed in a previous unit), was far from becoming
common in this region, so these social gatherings
were important to share stories, experiences, and discoveries
with those of most immediate proximity.
Interestingly enough, despite the differences in perspective
about the morality of slavery, whites of all classes
and walks shared a common sense of superiority. Fear of what
abolition may bring was a dangerous thought
as it was far from just the elites who had everything to lose, and
as the number of free blacks strengthened
throughout the 19th century, this ideology of superiority was
challenged, and fear grew.
In short, free blacks were American citizens subjugated under
13. the earliest forms of Jim Crow. The inalienable
rights that Jefferson promised were not denied, but there was
clear legal precedent in favor of the white man
over any claim of any other free man or woman, no matter how
successful they might have been. Land,
service, opportunity, and benefit were all questionable—the
elites had their wish; the law made whites united
across class lines, even dropping class restrictions in politics,
and that would be the way slavery continued
being considered a necessary evil.
This idea of a necessary evil would gain additional traction as
the Mexican-American War came to an end. As
we discussed in the previous unit, territories in the American
West had long been welcoming to U.S. settlers
who voluntarily pledged to abide by local customs and laws;
their presence along the border regions was
often of great use as a buffer with Native American tribes and
potential international threats. It was the
unexpected change in policy that sparked the series of violent
affairs beginning with the Alamo. Now, as the
U.S. had successfully annexed Texas and much of the former
Spanish Southwest, and with a Gold Rush,
among other precious mineral rushes, taking place from
Colorado to California, Americans searching for their
opportunity and a new life quickly rushed to stake a claim.
From the same Independence, Missouri, that
HY 1110, American History I 5

14. Title
served as a starting point for the Oregon Trail, the Santa Fe
Trail would also thrive, becoming an important
line of services while transportation and communication
infrastructure were built.
Briefly going back to the last unit, tying up any political debate
not focused on slavery were the on-goings in
the American West. With much of the former Mexican and
Spanish lands now legally in the hands of the
United States, and with the success of the Gold Rush at
attracting immigrants, the western coast was quickly
growing with the same success that was seen in the East. The
reason for debate, however, was again voting
rights. As states began to form borders, they would earn
representation in Washington D.C., but what had to
be decided was the slavery question. What emerged was a series
of plans intended to settle the expansion
measure before any more states were welcomed into the union.
The first suggestion, called the 1846 Wilmot Proviso, named
after Pennsylvania congressman David Wilmot,
said simply that because Mexico had already forbidden slavery,
that anti-slavery (free soil) is how these newly
added lands should remain. Considering how many of the most
famous figures to fight in the war, from the
Alamo to Santa Anna’s surrender, were Southerners, this was a
hotly contested perspective. If the proviso
passed, it meant two things: first, the remaining slave laws were
essentially grandfathered in. Simply put, the
standing tradition of laborers freely choosing their working
conditions (free labor) received rave support from
the North and great disdain from the South, and uniquely it was
carried along geographical, not party, lines.
15. The second outcome was that with this constraint in the West,
ongoing anti-southern sentiment in the North,
and a third (somewhat unexpected) region of support from
northern segregationists who wanted lands free of
other races, the representation of slave states would quickly
become the extreme minority in both chambers.
For most Southerners, slave holder or not, this was considered a
direct attack on the South’s culture,
economy, and society. There was already a growing population
majority against slave states, as evidence in
the House vote; it was only by the slimmest of margins that the
slave states were able to defeat the measure
in the Senate.
The next suggestion, called popular sovereignty, believed that
part of a state’s application should include a
decision by popular vote of that territory’s citizens as to which
economic situation was preferred. What killed
this plan was disagreement in details; slave states wanted the
vote to be late in the process to give time for
slavery to show its economic benefit, while northern states
knew they could stuff the ballots quickly during the
first steps in statehood, and cut the head from the snake while it
was still young. In 1847 the key advocate for
this plan was the Democratic Senator Lewis Cass from
Michigan. Despite its ill fate here, this is a plan that
would become very instrumental over the next decade, even
ironically deciding a pivotal election as the nation
was on the brink of division. There being no clear solution from
these debates, the issue would carry over to
the 1848 election. Cass would be the Democratic representative,
and opposing him would be the war hero
and Whig, Zachary Taylor, who had not weighed in on the labor
discussion in either direction.
1848 would be representative of just how divided the nation was
16. at this time; looking at the political map on
page 362, it is clear that geography was not the deciding factor.
Interestingly, because of Taylor’s silence on
the matter, this would not be simply a question of party politics.
Taylor was from Mississippi and had
plantation properties in the Southeast; southern Democrats saw
him as another Jackson: strong military
tradition, planter, and defender of agricultural rights. The
northern Democrats and Whigs feared what this
could mean if elected, and decided to abdicate to form the first
heavily northern biased party since the
Federalists: the “Free-Soil” party, and tabbed former President
and Vice President Martin Van Buren to lead
them. Van Buren, like most third party candidates, did not make
a dent in the election, winning zero electoral
votes and barely ten percent of the popular vote. If he made any
waves, it was taking popular votes away
from fellow northerner Cass. Many hoped that Taylor’s victory
would reunite the nation; his support ranged
from Vermont to Florida, and he scored every major state, save
Virginia. What was not yet clear was how the
rise of the Free-Soil party had hurt the two major parties.
Taylor was a man of immediate action; he felt that by striking
while the iron was still hot, there would be
almost an entire four year term to calm the fears of the nation,
giving the politics time to rebalance. As hopeful
as this was, it was not realistic. Taylor’s proactive attitude fit
directly into the northern plan for a quick vote,
denying the slave owners a chance to impact the economy.
California and New Mexico were the next likely
territories to ratify, and under this plan, both would be free-soil
states. Many spoke out, including Henry Clay
of Kentucky, who argued for compromise and was probably
lucky to still be welcomed home (Roark et al.,
2014, p. 363); followed by Ohio’s Salmon P. Chase, who
17. offered an opposing perspective; and finally
Mississippi’s fiery Henry S. Foote, who would have probably
started a raid against Clay had the northern
delegates not dominated Congress. South Carolina’s John C.
Calhoun, a veteran politician and former Vice
HY 1110, American History I 6

Title
President, gave perhaps the most worrying prediction: “As
things now stand, […the South] cannot with safety
remain in the Union.”
Almost poetically, Zachary Taylor, the hope for reunification,
died in office in July of 1850, before a decision
was made, and Millard Fillmore would oversee the next stages
of debate. Despite his upbringing, Taylor was
a nationalist who literally confronted any secessionist talk face-
to-face; he understood what it meant to
preserve the union, and his temper earned him the name “Old
Rough and Ready.” He famously said that
anyone “taken in rebellion against the Union, he would hang …
with less reluctance than he had hanged
deserters and spies in Mexico.” With this dedication to service,
it should be no surprise that Taylor’s son,
Richard, would become a general himself; ironically, however,
he would be in the service of the Confederate
Army, and a brother-in-law to Confederate President Jefferson
18. Davis.
After a series of hot tempers and refusals, the outcome would be
the Compromise of 1850, which essentially
opened California as a free-soil state, states that were already
pro-slave would be grandfathered in, and any
future territories would be given the opportunity to vote. This
was essentially Clay’s original plan, but it came
from a much less imposing political presence, the relatively
young Senator from Illinois, Stephen Douglas,
and included two stipulations: an end to the slave trade in
Washington DC, which was technically located
between two slave states, and the Fugitive Slave Act (Roark et
al., 2014, p. 365), which guaranteed any
runaway slaves were returned to their rightful owners, even if
caught on free soil. This act of course required
the willing acceptance of the law by those harboring fleeing
slaves, and it did not take long for this to become
a mess (Roark et al., 2014, p. 365).
In 1852 Fillmore would not run for re-election, and instead the
Whigs would try to once again elect a war hero
in General Winfield Scott. Democrat Franklin Pierce of New
Hampshire, with a noted sympathy for the
southern condition, would, however, carry the election easily as
the Free-Soil Party was still politically active,
and the deep divisions from 1848 were still quite apparent.
Perhaps his most successful accomplishment was
the Gadsden Purchase in 1853, solidifying the border with
Mexico and providing the necessary lands for
southern tracks through the American West, meaning the Santa
Fe Trail was no longer the only safe option
for passage. What may have been the only saving grace for the
U.S. at this time was the nationwide brand
that both major parties had; neither wanted to relinquish their
northern or southern bases of support, and the
19. Free-Soil Party’s failures had shown where the line between
economics and political leadership was drawn.
Despite this apparent lull in the fighting, continued western
settlement and transportation infrastructure would
also stoke the fires of the slavery question, such as with the
debates to incorporate Nebraska and Kansas
(Roark et al., 2014, pp. 367 and 370) in 1854.
New York’s Senator William H. Seward, is arguably best
remembered for a controversial 1867 purchase of a
patch of seemingly uninhabitable Russian tundra west of British
Columbia that today we call Alaska in
exchange for approximately half the cost of the entire Louisiana
Territory—aka “Seward’s Folly;” that is, of
course, before the discovery of vast natural resources and
precious metals approximately three decades
later. In 1854, with the Kansas-Nebraska Act (Johnson, 2012,
doc. 14-1) ink still waiting to dry, Seward
challenged pro-slave advocates to allow for the inhabitants of
Kansas to decide via popular sovereignty if they
would prefer slave or free-soil status. To settle this, both sides
had numbers pile into the territory, but the pro-
slavery potential settlers clearly dominated the election, causing
Kansas to enter its statehood process with a
pro-slave agenda, despite the less than ethical means. This of
course upset the free-soil advocates who took
the only logical action: they set up a rival government. May 21,
1856, began a small scale civil conflict near
the Missouri border. This conflict would end with numerous
battles, but the same result. Interestingly, among
the free-soil leaders would be one John Brown, a struggling
settler who was not afraid to use violent means,
and who would become a national figure after a violent 1859
incident in Harpers Ferry (Roark et al., 2014 pp.
358-359; Johnson, 2012, doc. 14-5), Virginia.
20. Couple this with the violent beating (Roark et al., 2014, pp.
375-376) of Massachusetts Senator Charles
Sumner by South Carolina congressman Preston Brooks in the
same month, and it became clear that the
slavery question was as hot as ever. In fact, the geographical
division of the remaining Louisiana Territories
and repeal of the Missouri Compromise, may have been just the
spark (Roark et al., 2014, p. 371) necessary
to fade that line as two new parties emerged out of the shell of
the Whigs: the Republican Party (not to be
confused with Jefferson’s Democratic-Republicans) and the
Know-Nothings (American Party).
The Republican origin is pretty straightforward: this was
primarily a group of northern anti-slavery advocates,
and their organization derived from the slavery debates. The
Know-Nothings were less expected and actually
emerged out of a different labor controversy: anti-immigration.
The name was essentially a playful reminder of
HY 1110, American History I 7
UNIT x STUDY GUIDE
Title
its origins as a secret club; aside, the nativist belief was quickly
gaining massive support. Many who joined
this Party feared how the continued immigration numbers
threatened available jobs and the American culture,
specifically Protestantism, a fear that was easy to recruit
21. support in the North, East, South, and West. The
Republicans knew that they must keep the slavery question at
the forefront to guarantee success. Going into
the election of 1856, their platform was that by stopping any
further slavery advancement, none of the new
territories would be open for slave labor, meaning a land of
fresh opportunity. This platform was very
successful; in addition to the clear leadership of the party, it
also attracted the support of groups without direct
influence, such as women, who were being highly sought after
in the male dominated northwest, and saw this
as an opportunity to resurrect some of their own reforms
introduced in previous units. As the map on page
372 shows, the Democrats remained overwhelmingly strong,
especially in the now united South, and elected
James Buchanan, running away. What should be taken from this
was that the slavery question remained
more of a hot button issue than immigration, and it is also
important to remember that abolition was not the
same as anti-slavery.
Perhaps the most notable challenge to the slave laws would be
the landmark case Dred Scott v. Sandford in
1857. Known simply as the Dred Scott decision today (Roark et
al., 2014, p. 376), this reviewed if the travel
by Dred Scott, a slave, chaperoned by his master into free-soil
lands officially freed him according to recent
laws. Chief Justice Roger B. Taney, presenting the opinion of
the Supreme Court, stated the following:
They had for more than a century before been regarded as
beings of an inferior order, and altogether
unfit to associate with the white race either in social or political
relations, and so far inferior that they
had no rights which the white man was bound to respect, and
22. that the negro might justly and lawfully
be reduced to slavery for his benefit. (as cited in Scott v.
Sandford, 1857, para. 100)
In short, Scott lost, but would be freed soon after thanks to the
charity of a wealthy free-soil advocate. The
importance of this decision, however, was that it set the legal
precedent that free men were only free on free-
soil, which invalidated the Missouri Compromise and provided
the first true constitutional rendering of the
slavery issue, which, as we discussed in earlier units, was
consciously set aside during the heat of the
Constitutional Convention. What this also did was essentially
draw the first political border between what
would become Confederate and Union territories in only a few
years’ time, and provided a necessary boost
for the struggling Republican Party that was trying to unite
against the southern dominated Democrats.
Leading this Republican resurgence would be former
congressman and current lawyer Abraham Lincoln of
Illinois; outspoken and clearly anti-slavery, Lincoln understood
and admitted the double edge of the abolition
debate, but he also understood that slavery had divided the
union, and to survive, the nation had to unite
under one set of laws:
I can not but hate [the prospect of slavery's expansion]. I hate it
because of the monstrous injustice of
slavery itself. I hate it because it deprives our republican
example of its just influence in the world—
enables the enemies of free institutions, with plausibility, to
taunt us as hypocrites—causes the real
friends of freedom to doubt our sincerity. Abraham Lincoln,
23. 1854 (as cited in National Park Service,
n.d., para. 18)
Lincoln’s first test was not in Washington, but in Illinois, where
he practiced law and was raising a young
family. The Republicans needed a forum for his ideas, and the
Senatorial election of 1858 was just that forum.
Illinois, a free-soil state, was still very divided concerning the
issue of abolition. Though Lincoln did not
advertise himself as one as it was political suicide, he did hold
strong convictions that containment was not at
all enough. To challenge him would be the incumbent Senator
Stephen Douglas, who had burst onto the
scene with his successful proposal of the Compromise of 1850,
but had since had a less-stellar record. He
was recognized by many as a deciding factor in the
controversial Kansas vote; Douglas himself was not an
advocate of slavery, but his party was, and his platform of
popular sovereignty had taken a sure victory out of
the hands of free-soil supporters. His unwillingness to vote with
the party caused a rift between him and
President Buchanan:
I deny the right of Congress to force a slaveholding State upon
an unwilling people. I deny their right
to force a free State upon an unwilling people. I deny their right
to force a good thing upon a people
who are unwilling to receive it. The great principle is the right
of every community to judge and decide
for itself, whether a thing is right or wrong, whether it would be
good or evil for them to adopt it; and
the right of free action, the right of free thought, the right of
free judgment upon the question is dearer
24. HY 1110, American History I 8

to every true American than any other under a free government.
(as cited in “Political Debates
Between Lincoln and Douglas,” n.d., para. 1)
For Douglas, this election was a necessary victory for his
political career.
The campaign tour would be a series of stops throughout the
state of Illinois; in the northern areas, Lincoln’s
strong anti-slave stand came to great applause, whereas Douglas
generally dominated in the southern stops.
The greater significance of this campaign, however, were the
debates themselves; Douglas was a national
figure, and Lincoln fed off of that press. Also significant, this
being a state election, for a national issue like
slavery to be the main platform was rare; it was clear from the
divided receptions that this was the topic on
many American minds, even over local affairs, and that even
committed states were not universal in their
support one way or another. Douglas would narrowly keep his
seat, a position that also kept him in a key
position for a run at the Presidency in 1860, but more
significantly, Lincoln was now a national name, and the
Republicans had an outspoken leader.
25. With the multitude of individual battles throughout the nation,
it was clear that both sides had dug in and were
unwilling to budge. Each side had great orators and political
strategists, both had specific examples of
aggression egged on and supported by the opposition, and both
found ways to justify their perspective as the
constitutional and religious right. At the center of everyone’s
attention was an election. So divided were the
causes and views that the majority of states came down to a
battle between two candidates. In the North, it
was a rematch between Lincoln and Douglas, and in the South,
between Buchanan’s Vice President John C.
Breckinridge and Tennessee Senator John Bell. Lincoln’s
chances at victory were so unlikely that his name
only appeared on one third of southern ballots. Despite this,
Lincoln would win all but one northern state
outright, and despite not gaining a popular majority, or a single
southern electoral vote, his electoral totals
(Roark et al., 2014, p. 382) far surpassed his closest contender,
Breckinridge.
Lincoln’s election proved that a united North now politically
trumped the South. With this understanding, the
secessionist rhetoric was never stronger, and on December 20,
1860, before Lincoln was even inaugurated
into office, South Carolina formally seceded, followed closely
after by Mississippi (Jan. 9th), Florida (Jan
10th), Alabama (Jan 11th), Georgia (Jan 19th), Louisiana (Jan
26th), and Texas (Feb 1st). Representatives of
each would meet on February 7th in Montgomery, Alabama, to
officially designate themselves unprotected by
the northern states and a separate nation: the Confederate States
of America (CSA). Lincoln would officially
take his oath of office on March 4, 1861, and the six border
states of Virginia, Arkansas, North Carolina,
26. Tennessee, Kentucky, and Missouri would also secede later that
year and join their neighbors as part of the
CSA. In his inaugural address, President Lincoln (1860) stated,
“You can have no conflict, without being
yourselves the aggressors. You have no oath registered in
Heaven to destroy the government, while I shall
have the most solemn one to ‘preserve, protect, and defend’ it”
(as cited in “First Inaugural Address,” n.d.,
para 39)
