Why was Canada such an appealing place for runaway slaves to got to?

History

nignag [31]3 years ago

Hi, I'm pretty sure that is because for many slaves, Canada represented a dream of freedom where slave catchers and lynch mobs couldn’t hurt them. Slaves on the Underground Railroad endured months, and even years, of living like fugitives while bounty hunters and racist government policies were always trying to impede their flight to freedom.

Most slaves started out their journey on the Underground Railroad (which wasn’t an actual railroad but more of a resistance and escape route that was heavily organized by concerned American citizens) by running away from their plantation in the middle of the night. Often the runaway slave was alone, but on many occasions whole families would escape together.

Hope it helps you.

How would you explain the depth of hostility felt by many white americans toward the indians?
yulyashka [42]

The depth of hostility felt by many white Americans toward the Indians The killing of a village of peaceful Indians for no other cause than hatred and xenophobia undoubtedly contributed to the high level of hostility toward Indians.

The Sand Creek Massacre in 1864 is a prime illustration of the animosity white men had toward Native Americans. When a cavalry came into a "camp of friendly Indians," they engaged in battle despite their best efforts to avoid it. Colonel Chivington, the commander of the cavalry, gave the order to invade this settlement, which led to the mutilation of Indian men, women, and even children.

Hatred was the prime reason for hostility towards Indians.
