Opposition to abolitionists in the North stemmed from a variety of factors, including economic interests, racial prejudice, and political concerns. Many Northern businessmen relied on the cotton industry and feared that abolition would disrupt their economic ties to the South. Additionally, some Northerners held racist attitudes and believed that freed Black individuals would threaten jobs and social order. Political tensions also escalated as abolitionist movements challenged the status quo, leading to fears of social unrest and disunion.
