Answer:

Massachusetts

Explanation:

Massachusetts was the state that argued that the slaves should be allowed to join the Union army. This was also significant for the slaves as it is believed in some circles that it was the end to slavery which led to the war. Also, the 54th Massachusetts infantry unit did induct slaves as soldiers in 1863. Hence, Massachusetts is the right answer to this.

Civil disobedience is defined as the refusal of a citizen to comply with certain laws or demands of a government. Civil disobedience has to be nonviolent hence the tag "civil".

He also led protests even when government authority had refused to grant him permission, hence encouraging civil disobedience.
