How did the Abolition movement develop and how was it seen in the north and in the south?
The Abolition movement emerged in the early 19th century, driven by moral, religious, and political opposition to slavery, with prominent figures like Frederick Douglass and William Lloyd Garrison advocating for emancipation. In the North, abolitionists gained support from various groups, including free blacks and religious societies, but faced backlash and violence from pro-slavery factions. Conversely, in the South, the movement was met with staunch resistance, as slavery was deeply intertwined with the region's economy and social order, leading to widespread defense of the institution. This growing divide ultimately contributed to the tensions that precipitated the Civil War.
