Answer:
In the Antebellum South, most slaves had difficult times characterized by poverty, very long-work hours doing demanding physical tasks, and psychological and physical abuse. They also had their families frequently torn apart.
Women, as recorded in Harriet Ann Jacobs work, were vicitms of sexual abuse on a constant basis.
Not all slaves were abused, and some slaves acquired relative wealth and status, but they were the minority. The vast majority of slaves had extremely difficult living conditions, and most importantly, they lacked the liberty that the US Constitution was supposed to guarantee.
Answer:
Popular sovereignty was seen on the issue of slavery as a political middle ground. Popular sovereignty is the principle that people should rule, and as such the status of slavery should be determined by the votes of local settlers and not congress.
During the Mexican War, when slavery became a political problem, Douglas faced a challenge. Fearing that the issue would interfere with the Constitution, he argued for the doctrine of popular sovereignty — the right of the people of a state or territory to determine for themselves the question of slavery — as a solution for the sake of the Union. He led the congressional struggle for the 18th compromise.
