When northern abolitionists looked at a map of Am and eacuterica un 1854what might have concerned them?
In 1854, northern abolitionists would have been concerned by the expansion of slavery into new territories, especially following the passage of the Kansas-Nebraska Act, which allowed settlers to decide the status of slavery in those regions. The prospect of new slave states entering the Union threatened to tip the balance of power in Congress in favor of pro-slavery interests. Additionally, the potential spread of a slave economy into areas previously free could undermine their efforts to promote abolition and civil rights. Such developments highlighted the growing sectional tensions between the North and South.
