Why did the United States fail to reach a compromise on slavery? Was there a solution other than war?

History

Assoli18 [71]3 years ago

The US had many attempts at compromise with varying levels of sucess before the Civil War. However, when Lincoln was elected president (on the platform of stopping the expansion of slavery), the South lost hope and seceded. 
There is always a solution other than war, however, in this case, war had been a looming possibility for quite some time, and compromise probably would've only pushed the war back a year or two.
Hope this helps :)

The racial profiling and perceived unjustified shooting of african americans by police has been epitomized by?
jekas [21]

The racial profiling and perceived unjustified shooting of African Americans by police has been epitomized by the kneeling of athletes during national anthem.

Racism is an entrenched problem in the United States, not the least as a legacy of the practice of slavery. This has led to frequent racial attacks and discrimination against people of color, including African Americans.

One manifestation of this is racial profiling, which is the tendency to linked people of particular ethnic and racial backgrounds as prone to commit crimes. The unjustified shooting of African Americans has been a result of this attitude.

Kneeling on one knee when the US national anthem is being played is one in which American athletes have been protesting against these injustices. Opinions are divided. Some dismiss these as unpatriotic acts and disrespectful, while others have praised the effect of these forms of protests and see it as patriotic.
