Most of the abolitionists supported the Underground Railroad because most of the abolitionists wanted to end slavery.
they attempted to end slavery by hiding slaves in their house and helping them escape slavery through the underground railroad. the underground railroad was an escape route for slaves to escape the harsh cruelty of slavery. the underground railroad is not a railroad underground.
They were all abolitionists who contributed in the movement of slaves from the southern colonies to the north. (Underground Railroad)
Abolitionists and sympathizers of all colors, slave and freed Negroes, and fugitive (runaway) slaves. Some provided food and brief respite: an hour, overnight, or a day. Some provided transportation. Some provided funds to help maintain the operations. Others, like Sojourner Truth, risked their lives and freedom to make repeated trips to guide other runaways through the dangerous windings of the underground railroad.
End slavery
The end of slavery-
no because some were afraid tht they would get caught trying to help the run away slaves
They are all republican
Carrot, Sugarcane, Turnip & Onion all these are underground stem.
The Fugitive Slave Act was an add-on to the 1850 Missouri Compromise. Many people, not just abolitionists didn't like it at all. Even people not against slavery did not believe it was their responsibility to help enforce it whether they received rewards or not. So basically, the abolitionists found allies among Northern people not wanting to get involved.
Most of them didn't. The Abolitionists did. But most Northerners were not Abolitionists, and were just exasperated that all of this was bringing war nearer.
The underground railroad were a series of underground passages that led to "safe houses" for the slaves. The slaves could stop at these houses for food and rest without fear of being turned in. The passages, or underground railroad, led to states where slavery was illegal and therefore they gained their freedom.
Abolitionists were people who wanted the Slaves to be free...They were the people who helped with the underground railroad for example. So, no, I think if you owned a slave back then, you really didn't want an abolitionist watching your slave ;)
