Since the Missouri Compromise of 1820, the US Congress was able to put off the delicate issue about slavery. When Missouri applied for statehood, James Talmadge had a proposal. Representative Talmadge from New York proposed that Missouri could enter the Union provided that no more slaves be introduced into Missouri. At the time, Missouri had approximately 10,000 slaves. He also proposed that slaves already in Missouri should be freed when they reached the age of 25. There seemed to be no reference about slaves in Missouri that were already over 25 years old.
Many escaped slaves fled to Canada in the 1850s primarily due to the promise of freedom and the absence of slave laws. The passage of the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850 in the United States made it increasingly dangerous for escaped slaves, as it mandated the return of escaped slaves to their owners and imposed penalties on those assisting them. Canada, with its strong anti-slavery stance and established networks like the Underground Railroad, offered a safe haven for those seeking to escape the brutality of slavery. Additionally, Canada’s legal framework did not recognize slavery, providing a more secure environment for former slaves.
Harriet Tubman with the Underground Railroad was that she helped freed children and slaves and she was the conductor.
