<u>Broad Context:</u> The "Big Picture" is that the US is trying to annex the Republic of Texas as part of their states, and that Texas already <em>shared many common traits </em>(why? part) with the US, and should join as a state of their choosing, (which means slave or free) (How? part).
<u>Other Context:<em> </em></u><em> </em>The adding of Texas into the US (eventually as a slave state) offsetted the balance between the slaves and free states, and so California (gained after the Mexican-American War) was turned into a free state. Texas was the cause of the Texas Revolution & later on the (already named) Mexican-American War. The adding of Texas, and later the Gadsen Purchase, help create today's US southern border that is shared with Mexico.

Besides, the fact that the Confederacy supported slavery also prevented France and Britain from supporting them, because in both countries, slavery was unpopular.

In point of fact, all of them were effective. The Supreme court heard many cases on the right to vote and the right to be treated as though color were not a determining factor on voting rights. These cases helped bring about the Civil Rights act of 1964 and the Voting rights act of 1965. It put teeth into the 15th amendment, all of which you should look up.
Martin Luther King made a huge impact on Civil Rights. One of key ideas that he had was civil disobedience. Even that was strongly opposed by people like Governor George Wallace. That aside, civil disobedience was a method that peaceful people could tie into and participate in. Look up Rosa Parks as the primary example of someone very welling to stand her ground.
When you look up the Civil Rights act you will see that the Federal Government played a key role in making and enforcing key laws.
