They thought slavery was terrible and they didn't want to take sides with Southern Virginia, where slavery was the main part of the economy and the society. They thought it was immoral, selfish, and cruel. They didn't want to be a part of the movement that supported slavery. (during the civil war)

In a paragraph what is the townshend act

The Townshend Acts were a series of measures, passed by the British Parliament in 1767, that taxed goods imported to the American colonies. But American colonists, who had no representation in Parliament, saw it as an abuse of power.
