“The revolutionary generation’s emphasis on liberty raised questions about the future of slavery in the new republic. Slaves appreciated that by defining freedom as a universal right, the revolutionist had devised a weapon that could be used against their own bondage.”(Foner, Voices of Freedom, Petition of slaves to the massachusetts Legislature)
“The passage of the Fugitive Slave Act in 1850 tested in the most direct way the relationship between law and liberty. Numerous northerners that they would not obey the new measure, which abrogated the local laws that sought to prevent the kidnapping of free black people.”(Foner, Voices of Freedom, Resistance to the Fugitive Slave Act)
“In thirty years before the outbreak of the Civil War, proslavery thought came to dominate southern public life. Racism formed one pillar of the proslavery ideology”(Foner,Voices of Freedom, George Fitzhugh The Pro Slavery Argument).

“The abolishment movement was centered on those parts of the US where slavery had first ended, and which were least connected to the southern economy.”(Presentation/Northern Culture Reform, 1815-1860)
Watson describes a distinct and separate “northern culture of reform” and a “world of the South” in the US in the decades before the Civil War (Watson, Building the American Republic, chapters 9 & 10).
