History

The Roaring Twenties was a great golden age in America, but ironically, led to its greatest downfall.

Lots of new things became popular among all Americans in the 20's; automobiles, radio, silent movies, etc. People were spending money left and right on these things, and were becoming very materialized. So why am I talking about Americans buying boatloads of stuff they didn't need? Well, this was one of the prime causes of the Great Depression. Americans started buying on margin, or buying with credit; buy now, pay later. People bought so much like this, that they had to borrow lots of money from the banks. As this went on, it built up slowly, and led into buying stocks on margin. This eventually led to the Stock Market Crash of 1929. As people ran to the banks to withdraw all their money, the banks failed, and people lost all their savings in the blink of an eye. Manufacturers soon started producing less and laying off workers as jobs became a demand, and ended up causing the intense unemployment rates throughout the country. And finally, farmers suffered as a massive drought hit the Mississippi Valley in 1930, which created the infamous Dust Bowl.

Why did some fugitives go to Canada instead of staying in northern states?
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

Some fugitives went to Canada instead of staying in northern states because they risked being captured in northern states.

Explanation:

During the time of slavery in the southern United States, escaping slaves had to leave the southern states in order to guarantee (to some extent) their freedom. Even so, many times the owners crossed the Mason-Dixon Line and captured the fugitives, either in open places in front of anyone, or with the collusion of the authorities. Therefore, once the Underground Railroad (the organization that was in charge of helping the slaves to escape) was formed, many routes were directed directly to Canada, so as not to saturate the routes to the great northern cities such as New York, as to guarantee the safety of slaves in a country that had abolished slavery in 1807.
