What was the southern attitude towards abolition what was the northern attitude?
Prior to the US Civil War, the issue of abolition in the South was clear. Most of all Southerners were opposed to it even if they owned no slaves. One reason was slavery had become part of the Southern culture. Whites were born into a slave society and saw no reason to change it. No Constitutional amendments were really offered and with 4 million slaves or so, in the South, the social implications were, or seemed impossible to imagine.In the North, however, the Abolitionist movement were a strong, vocal , minority. These people quite correctly wanted to abolish slavery, however, they too had no real solution to the obvious social changes this would bring about. But they were correct, slavery was wrong. It was wrong when the US was born out of the Articles of Federation too. The problem became too big too fast. Now other Northerners had mixed feelings about slavery and that it existed in the South made the problem not so dear to their lives. They too had been born into a nation that had slaves. Many opposed it, but none were going to die for it. The manufacturing section of the North was quite inclined to keep slaves on the Southern plantations to help keep the cost of cotton for textile mills low. Immigrant workers feared that freeing slaves would endanger their jobs as certainly former slaves would come north and seek jobs. In summary it was a mixed bag of feelings and it was the fault of first the British colonialists, then the Americans that failed to take actions to slowly at least, abolish slavery.
