The plan was set forth. The giants — Calhoun, Webster, and Clay — had spoken. Still the Congress debated the contentious issues well into the summer. Each time Clay's Compromise was set forth for a vote, it did not receive a majority. Henry Clay himself had to leave in sickness, before the dispute could be resolved. In his place, Stephen Douglas worked tirelessly to end the fight. On July 9, President Zachary Taylor died of food poisoning. His successor, MILLARD FILLMORE, was much more interested in compromise. The environment for a deal was set. By September, Clay's Compromise became law.
California was admitted to the Union as the 16th free state. In exchange, the south was guaranteed that no federal restrictions on slavery would be placed on Utah or New Mexico. Texas lost its boundary claims in New Mexico, but the Congress compensated Texas with $10 million. Slavery was maintained in the nation's capital, but the slave trade was prohibited. Finally, and most controversially, a FUGITIVE SLAVE LAW was passed, requiring northerners to return runaway slaves to their owners under penalty of law
Answer:
Jim Crow laws - Cause
Jim Crow laws were laws in the Southern States that disenfranchised African Americans, made segregation legal, gave support to hate organizations like the KKK, and reduced their economic opportunities. Jim Crow Laws were one of the main motivations for African Americans to migrate to the Northeast and the Midwest.
More segregated neighborhoods in the North - Effect
Most African Americans emigrated to low-income neighborhoods of urban areas in the Northern states. As soon as they began to move in, most white people left, as some government policies like redlining also promoted this increased segregation.
Harlem Renaissance - Effect
The Harlem Renaissance was an African American cultural movement that emerged in the Harlem neighborhood of Manhattan during the first decades of the XX century. It was caused by the Great Migration due to the large number of black people who moved there during this period.
Violence toward African Americans - Cause
Violence toward African Americans in the South was common during and after the Reconstruction Era. Lynchings and hangings were common, and supported by the authorities. This was one of the main motivations for African Americans to migrate to the North.
