Some abolitionists and enslaved African Americans distrusted the American colonization society and their goals differed from that of the ACS.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Differences of opinion existed among the people of US regarding the grant of citizenship to former slaves. Some thought they would be better off in Africa which is their birthplace where they will be free from racial discrimination. But some believed that they should be allowed to stay back in the US as free citizens.  

American Colonization Society was formed in 1817 to transport free blacks to Africa. A colony was formed in the west coast of Africa. This later became the nation Liberia. Anti-slavery advocates thought that this approach is not progressive and the intent of the move was the retention of slavery.  

The ACS slowly declined faced by the oppositions after 1840.

Alona [7]
The Monroe Doctrine was a policy outlined by President James Monroe in his address to Congress in 1823. This policy maintained that the US would remain neutral in European affairs and would not mess with current European colonies in the Western Hemisphere. However, this doctrine also set that any new attempt to colonize territories in the Western Hemisphere would be seen as a threat by the United States government.

This doctrine was supposed to create two different "spheres of influence." Essentially, the Eastern and Western Hemispheres would be isolated from each other. This doctrine was adopted based on America's involvement in European affairs over the course of the last 50 years. The US was involved in countless European wars/affairs (French and Indian War, XYZ Affair, War of 1812, etc.) and wanted to become isolated from these issues. Along with this, the US wanted the ability to influence Latin American countries in the Western Hemisphere.
