Advanced American History
Our discussion of sectionalism and tensions between North and South continues today with a discussion of some of the key events and individuals that lead to Civil War in the 1950's. You should understand the following:
- How and why the Compromise of 1850 produces unintended consequences that lead to conflict.
- How the Kansas-Nebraska Act produces tensions, leads to the formation of the Republican party, etc.
- The impact of things like the Dred Scott Case, Uncle Tom's Cabin, etc.
American Studies
After checking your homework for today, we reviewed the concept of Sectionalism, the Abolitionist Movement, and problems of the early 1800's between North and South. We also began work on questions from Chapter 3, Section 1 (p. 66) that summarize some of the key events leading to war in the 1860's
