Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Examines the Impact of the Idealism of the Personal Liberty Laws of Pennsylvania, New York, Massachusetts, Ohio and Wisconsin The Personal Liberty Laws reflected the social ethical commitment to freedom from slavery and as such were among the bricks that laid the foundation for the Fourteenth Amendment. Morris examines those statutes as enacted in the five representative states Pennsylvania, New York, Massachusetts, Ohio and Wisconsin, and argues that these laws were an alternative to the violence allowed by the southern slave codes and the extreme abolitionist viewpoints of the north.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Annual Report Presented to the American Anti-Slavery Society, by the Executive Committee: At the Annual Meeting, Held in New York, May 9, 1855; With an Appendix Thigs had the predominance at that time, after some prudent hesita tion, lest an emphatic expression of indignation might enure to the benefit Of the Abolitionists and Free Soilers, at last passed a series Of strong resolutions, by the unanimous vote Of the Senate, and with a very few negative votes (of Adamantine Democrats) in the House. The Legislature Of Connecticut, also, passed a series of manly and comprehensive Resolutions, as her Protest against this wickedness, by a vote Of16 to 1 in the Senate and by an overwhelming majority in the House. During all this time, too, the voice Of the Press was mainly heard on the side Of freedom and justice. The great deeps Of Northern feeling seemed to be stirred up and to threaten fearfully, in case the will of the people should not be obeyed. That the great majority Of the people were opposed to this new outrage there is no reason to doubt. The result was only a fresh proof how impotent are Northern majorities against the chicaneries and trickeries Of Slaveholding politicians and their tools, at lashington.

Download or read book Street Diplomacy written by Elliott Drago and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2022-11-15 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An illuminating look at how Philadelphia's antebellum free Black community defended themselves against kidnappings and how this "street diplomacy" forced Pennsylvanians to confront the politics of slavery. As the most southern of northern cities in a state that bordered three slave states, antebellum Philadelphia maintained a long tradition of both abolitionism and fugitive slave activity. Although Philadelphia's Black community lived in a free city in a free state, they faced constant threats to their personal safety and freedom. Enslavers, kidnappers, and slave catchers prowled the streets of Philadelphia in search of potential victims, violent anti-Black riots erupted in the city, and white politicians legislated to undermine Black freedom. In Street Diplomacy, Elliott Drago illustrates how the political and physical conflicts that arose over fugitive slave removals and the kidnappings of free Black people forced Philadelphians to confront the politics of slavery. Pennsylvania was legally a free state, at the street level and in the lived experience of its Black citizens, but Pennsylvania was closer to a slave state due to porous borders and the complicity of white officials. Legal contests between slavery and freedom at the local level triggered legislative processes at the state and national level, which underscored the inability of white politicians to resolve the paradoxes of what it meant for a Black American to inhabit a free state within a slave society. Piecing together fragmentary source material from archives, correspondence, genealogies, and newspapers, Drago examines these conflicts in Philadelphia from 1820 to 1850. Studying these timely struggles over race, politics, enslavement, and freedom in Philadelphia will encourage scholars to reexamine how Black freedom was not secure in Pennsylvania or in the wider United States.
