Slavery led to segregation due to the fact that most slaves were disenfranchised and uneducated. The whites did not consider slaves equal as human beings and felt that they were dirty. Though this conception was proven wrong, whites eventually kept segregation laws in order to keep the black population down and keep the whites superior.

Why did northern politicians oppose the extension of slavery into the new territories?
The North had opposed the extension of slavery because they didn't want the 'inhumane' segregation to spread the the newer joining territories/states. And they couldn't have yet attempted to abolish slavery all together at that point because the segregation force was too large and powerful. So they hoped to only turn new territories/states anti-slavery. Slavery was one issue, equal rights was another issue. So to say that Northerners did not like segregation is not true. Segregation existed in the North and the USA as a whole for decades after the Civil War.
