Abolitionists in the northern states emerged due to a combination of moral, religious, and political beliefs against slavery. Many were influenced by Enlightenment ideals of freedom and equality, as well as religious movements like the Second Great Awakening, which emphasized social justice. The industrial economy of the North also contrasted with the agrarian South, leading to differing views on labor and human rights. Additionally, abolitionist literature and activism raised awareness about the inhumanity of slavery, galvanizing support for its end.

The South supported it because it could have allowed new slave-states. The Northern abolitionists opposed it for the same reason.
Northern abolitionists faced significant obstacles in disseminating their ideas to southerners due to strict laws and societal norms that suppressed anti-slavery sentiments in the South. The publication of abolitionist literature was often banned, and the postal service was used to censor or intercept abolitionist materials. Additionally, the pervasive culture of fear and violence against abolitionists and their sympathizers in the South stifled open dialogue and made it dangerous for southerners to engage with or express abolitionist views. As a result, the messages of abolitionists struggled to penetrate the deeply entrenched pro-slavery attitudes of the Southern states.
