History

zaharov [31]3 years ago
3 0

Olaudah Equiano (1745-1797) was a Nigerian writer and the first person to publish his memoirs as a testimony of his life as a slave, after being kidnapped from his home in Nigeria when he was 11 years old. He was able to receive a proper education,  and when he could obtain his freedom he intensively participated in  abolitionist movements. Moreover, he made his most personal contribution by writing his memoirs containing all that he lived and witnessed.

After a trip across the Ocean he arrived to colonial Virginia. His first owner was Michael Pascal, a lieutenant in the Royal Navy, who acquired Equiano in 1754. They travelled to England, where Equiano served as a valet during the Seven Years' War against France. Equiano also learnt about sailing in the sea, and assisted the crew during battles, apart from perfoming his main task that consisted on bringing gunpowder to the gun decks.

After these war times he was sent by Pascal to England where he attended a school, learnt to read and write, and converted to Christianism.

1. How did California’s desire to be admitted to the union as a free state in 1850 cause disagreements between the North and Sou
Shkiper50 [21]

1. Answer: California's admittance to the Union as a free state angered the South because it meant there were more free states than slave states. It also angered them because slaves could escape and go there to be free.

2. Answer: The Compromise of 1850 eased the South's concerns of Congress abolishing slavery after admitting California as a free state because the Fugitive Slave Act was a provision in the compromise that would legally require escaped slaves to be returned to their owners if caught. The compromise also ensured popular sovereignty which allowed individual states to vote on issues.

3. Answer: The Fugitive Slave Act required that escaped slaves that went to the North would have to be returned to their owner in the South. The North rebelled against this law, however.

4. Answer: Georgia's response to the Compromise of 1850 was the Georgia Platform. It said that Georgia would accept the compromise if the North no longer made any attacks on slavery in the South.

I hope this helps!!! :)
