How enslaved people were viewed and treated by southerners and by northerners

History
1 answer:
erik [133]3 years ago

Explanation:Southerners saw slaves as property. Northerners viewed slaves as human beings. Harriet Tubman was born into slavery and never had any rights. She was treated like property and might have, to some extent, viewed herself that way because of circumstances. Freedom gave her many rights she had never known and many possibilities. However, even Northerners did not see African Americans as equals to whites in society. Though Abe Lincoln believed they deserved life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, he and other northerners still saw African Americans as inferior, as demonstrated by laws in the North that gave African Americans fewer rights than whites. Still, the northern view that African Americans were entitled to at least certain rights was sure to make people like Harriet Tubman feel freer and more privileged than she ever could have dreamed of being in the South.

Slaves did not just capitulate to their situation. What were some ways slaves
artcher [175]
Some ways that slaves resisted slavery was by rebelling, being less productive at work, stealing from their owners, and sometimes actually harming their owners (or just other white people).  The slaves demonstrated a sense of semi-independence or self- worth through having their own subculture with their own unique music, having a religion and their own churches to tie them together, as well as celebrating their African roots and traditions. Slave masters allowed some of these behaviors so as to avoid their slaves becoming really aggressive towards them, as well as giving the slaves some "freedoms" encouraged and motivated slaves so they didn't get too hostile.

The Third Amendment to the Constitution would be violated if
Sloan [31]

<u>People were forced to house soldiers in their homes.</u>

The Third Amendment protects people's right to decide whether or not they house military personnel in their property during times of peace, meaning that people can not be forced to house them. The only exception is when the nation is in time of war and the order to house soldier has been prescribed by law. This Amendment is considered by many a law that indicates a preference for the civilian over the military.
