The Northern states were generally opposed to segregation, as they had abolished slavery earlier and were more influenced by abolitionist movements. However, while legal segregation was less prevalent than in the South, de facto segregation still existed in housing, schools, and public spaces due to discriminatory practices and policies. Many Northern cities experienced racial tensions and riots, highlighting the ongoing struggle for civil rights and equality. Activists worked tirelessly to challenge these inequalities, laying the groundwork for later civil rights advancements.
