Thaddeus Stevens (1792-1868) and Charles Sumner (1811-1874) were leaders of the Radical Republicans during Reconstruction (1865-1877). The Radical Republicans were a group of American politicians that belonged to the Republican Party and that fought with determination for a complete elimination of slavery and secessionism. Both Stevens and Sumner were zealous antislavery advocates, and they believed not only in freeing the slaves, but also in granting the same rights to the freedmen.
Secession, as it applies to the outbreak of the American Civil War, comprises the series of events that began on December 20, 1860, and extended through June 8 of the next year when eleven states in the Lower and Upper South severed their ties with the Union. The first seven seceding states of the Lower South set up a provisional government at Montgomery, Alabama. After hostilities began at Fort Sumter in Charleston Harbor on April 12, 1861, the border states of Virginia, Arkansas, Tennessee, and North Carolina joined the new government, which then moved its capital to Richmond, Virginia. The Union was thus divided approximately on geographic lines. Twenty-one northern and border states retained the style and title of the United States, while the eleven slave states adopted the nomenclature of the Confederate States of America.

I think Socrates wouldn't had been killed if he lived in the United States today since citizens of the United States have freedom of speech. Socrates was simply killed because he didn't recognized the gods recognized by the states as gods. In the United States Socrates has freedom speech meaning that he is able to publicly criticized the gods without any danger. He corrupted the youths of Athens by saying the gods they followed are faked. In the United States today, he would still be alive. I based my answer on today's political system and the how Socrates was killed simply by telling the people what he really believes.
