Test Review: Andrew Jackson, Social Changes
1. Free Soil- an anti-slavery party that endorsed the Wilmot Proviso’s declaration that slavery would not be allowed in any territories acquired from Mexico.
2. Nat Turner- led a bloody slave rebellion in Hampton VA. Went from plantation to plantation collecting slaves for his slave army and killing all white ppl he saw. He got #hung
3. Harriet Tubman- Escaped slave who was a conductor on the Underground Railroad and brought thousands of slaves to freedom.
4. Kansas-Nebraska Act- Kansas and Nebraska both got to decide whether or not they were going to be slave or free states. An example of popular sovereignty bc people get to choose the fate of their state.
5. Bleeding Kansas- A time of conflict in Kansas as it was divided between pro-slavery and abolitionists. Violent with a lot of bloodshed and guerilla warfare.
6. Missouri Compromise- In 1819, the Legislature was balanced (11 slave states and 11 free states). Missouri becoming a state would upset this balance so legislation made Missouri a slave state and Maine a non-slave state. This compromise also prohibited all new states from the Louisiana Purchase from becoming slave states.
7. Compromise of 1850- Cali was brought into the USA as a free state, and Congress divided the rest of the land acquired from Mexico to be divided in the N. Mexico and Utah.
8. Fugitive Slave Act- authorized local governments to seize and return runaway slaves to their owners and imposed penalties on anyone who helped them escape
9. Underground Railroad- vast network of people/places that helped slaves escape and travel North where they’re free
10. Dredd/Scott case- sued for freedom bc legislation said anyone could sue for wrongful enslavement and if a slave was brought to a free state they became free but was denied; enraged and rallied abolitionists
11. Lowell Mill- combined factory and town; originally women worked there -> pushed out by immigrant workers
12. Steamboat- invented by Fulton; improved trade (provided ports with greater access to goods)
13. Telegraph-invented by Samuel Morse (Morse Code); allowed for ideas to be spread easier
14. Cotton Gin- invented by Eli Whitney; unintended side effect=increased demand for slavery
15. Reaper
16. Immigration (Know Nothing Party)
17. Cult of Domesticity
18. 2nd Great Awakening
19. Seneca Falls
20. Temperance (Carrie Nation)
21. Frederick Douglass
22. Life of slaves on a plantation- Slaves were treated like animals, forced to do hard work and be watched by an overseer, were forced to stay until they died
23. Trail of Tears- Jackson’s policy forced Native Americans to leave their lands (in Georgia) to move west. The path was disease-ridden and many died on the way (to Oklahoma)
24. Indian Removal Act- A racist act made by President Jackson, forced Natives to go on the trail of tears because they wanted their land
25. Nullification crisis- Nullification: any state could nullify federal laws. Caused by the Tariff of 1828, Calhoun wanted to nullify the tariff (in SC), but this caused President Jackson to create a Force Bill (he could stop Calhoun by using troops)
26. Jackson and the Bank: Panic of 1837- Caused by refusal extension of loans, failure of wheat crop, depression in england, Jackson not extending the charter of the 2nd nat. bank. State banks closed, jobless workforce, wage cut.
