Answer:

Not sure of the first one but the others are pretty much

People traveled on the Underground Railroad to escape slavery and to find freedom

The word "underground" means it was below the surface

The people along the routes who help escaped slaves were called conductors

The escaped slaves on the routes were freedom seekers

The safe houses along the route were called stations

When the escaped slaves arrived in the North, they were free but they still faced discrimination

The group of people who were fighting slavery was called abolitionists. Harriet Tubman was a famous conductor on the Underground Railroad

The Fugitive Slave Law of 1850 required people to turn in any slaves to be returned to their owners, even if they were in a free state

This was the beginning of the Civil War

Hoochie [10]

Jamestown presents two sides of America's founding one is positive and the other is negative as some people obtained benefits but others were negatively affected.

Jamestown was one of the first settlements in North America, this settlement was located in Virginia, and it is believed it was the beginning of the colonization in North America.

This important event has been considered by experts as both positive, and negative. This is because:

  • Discovering and settling in this new territory was a huge advancement (Positive).
  • Settlers had opportunities that were not possible in Europe (Positive).
  • Native people from the area had to leave their territories and many died because of diseases brought by settlers (Negative).
  • Later, African people were taken as slaves to Jamestown and other territories (Negative)

This means this event has two sides because only some obtained a benefit from it.
