Why was slavery a paradox in the United States? Why did most blacks not want to go to Africa during the colonization movement? W
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer and Explanation:

Slavery in the United States was a paradox because it was stated in the constitution that all men are created equal, yet the same document contradicted it and there were laws such as the Virginia law passed in October 1705, stating that if a master was to kill a slave who was undergoing “correction,” it would not be considered a crime.

The Back-to-Africa Movement: also known as black Zionism or colonization movement was the the view that Americans of African ancestry should return to Africa. It failed woefully as most black Americans did not want to return to Africa. This is most likely because they didn't know the homelands of their ancestors and were not sure where to begin(afraid of starting afresh) or what the "strange land" of Africa held for them.

States' rights in American refers to the political powers that reserved only/exclusive to the U.S. state governments rather than the federal government as defined by the United States Constitution.

To avoid dissolution of the Union by appeasing both sides on the slavery issue. This is because the threat of dissolution was mainly founded on outstanding slavery issues and tension that would eventually bring about the civil war.
