The answer is C. Federal law requiring states to assist in the capture and return of slaves. The contentiousness of the fugitive slave act in the Compromise of 1850, was an attempt to prolong the inevitable war that was coming. Emerson's revulsion to the act was made in the context of the fact the men making these decisions were not illiterate savages, but learned men who could read and write and supposedly knew what is was to be human and should have abhorred (hated) anything to do with slavery.

One effect of the encomienda system in Latin
CaHeK987 [17]

The correct answer is 3) exploited indigenous peoples.


The econmienda system was used by the Spanish in their colonization efforts of the New World. This labor system revolved around land being given to Spanish colonizers. These colonizers would then be given a group of indigenous people to work on their land. Besides providing them with shelter, the people who owned the land were supposed to convert the Natives to Christianity.


Despite the good intentions of this system it backfired mightly, as Spanish land owners treated indigenous people poorly. This system was close to a type of slavery in which the indigenous people had almost no political or legal power.
