A) Analyze how TWO of the following factors contributed to the growth of the slave trade and/or slavery in the southern region o
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer: A.) The new Fugitive Slave Act, passed in 1850, made the federal government responsible for apprehending fugitive slaves in the North, and sending them back to the South. This extended slavery and its enforcement beyond the South. However, the South found that the act wasn’t strong enough which caused a second Fugitive Slave Act to come out that same year. However, that law was so severe that its implementation was open to abuses that defeated its purpose. The Fugitive Slave Acts were used to prosecute blacks fleeing their masters in border states that were loyal to the Union.

Cotton cultivation meant that more cotton was being grown, which meant there was an increased demand for slaves. While it was true that the cotton gin reduced the labor of removing seeds, it did not reduce the need for slaves to grow and pick the cotton. In fact, the opposite occurred. Cotton growing became so profitable for the planters that it greatly increased their demand for both land and slave labor.

B.) Many slaves rebelled and sabotaged work. Some also tried to escape to other places, such as Canada. They also resisted in very subtle and peaceful ways. Mainly by refusing privately to use names given to them by slaveholders and maintaining their identity by keeping track of family members. Music, folk tales, and other African cultural forms also became weapons of resistance, considering that many were not educated.
