Why did many African Americans who had never been enslaved flee to Canada?

1 answer:

5 0

A lot of them were fleeing with family. They were helping others escape that were slaves. They were being forced out, at times, because even though they weren't slaves, they were mistreated. They claim that slavery, at the time, was to protect African Americans. They fed them, housed them, etc. So supposedly it was because they were no longer safe. Also, back then, you could become a slave, unless you had your papers. So some feared becoming slaves.

Answer:

Isolationism

Explanation:

In October 1973, the United States of America was perhaps the largest economic crisis since World War II.
Six days after the start of the Yom Kippur war, US President Nixon approved military assistance to Israel worth $ 2.2 billion after the Soviet Union did an identical thing to the Arab states.
The embargo did not last long on the scene and was taken down in March 1974, but due to the earlier crisis, oil prices remained high. Contrary to expectations, the state introduced several new laws, such as safety standards (which only increased the dimensions of already tall cars) and the so-called "Clear Air Act", aimed at reducing smog rates.
