Early Abolitionists
Abolitionism was created with the American republic. It didnt go away until the nation's close death experience of the Civil War. And whle the Abolitionists worked to abolish slavery and racism through the years , their plans and tactics continuously evolved. The era between the American Revolution and the 1830's was the first time of transformation. The beginning was an elite Abolitionist movement in Pennyslvania while the post Revolutionary time slowed down to an egalitarian movement in Massachusetts in the 1830's. There were alter in locations , abolitionists strategies , and tatics. In Pennyslvania , where they needed support to end slavery from the politicians. Changes in American political culture and the social life of the society had an influence on abolitionists transformation during the 1820's into the early years of the 1830's starting with the stories and beliefs of revivalism down to the upcoming prominence of free black and female activits.Massachusetts agitators took hold of the cultural change to turn the abolitionist movement into an revolutionary force to go against Pennyslvania's traditional ways of reform.

Slavery Treatment in the 1800's
this picture displays the aftermath of the pnishment of the slave
The treatment of slaves in was rarely any good. Plantation slaves were actually called field hands. They had jobs to attend to, such as to plant crops and pick the cotton in the fields. In the home of the master's house slaves worked as servants and was demanded to do house chores like washing clothes and cooking dinner. Some of the other slaves who also worked on the plantations became trained had jobs like blacksmiths, carpenters and cabinetmakers. Slaves didn’t always work in houses or in the fields they began to make progress and switched to taking business into working in factories and while some others were construction workers on canals and railroads, some slaves worked in mines. Owners didn’t want the slaves to be educated because whites thought slaves would get courage to run away. Some slave owners didnt treat their slaves as bad but then again most of the owners did. Apart of the poor treatment slaves were punished or threatned. When slaves worked in groups they were often worked alot or punished.Some who worked as the owners servants was treated as family sometimes. In some cases slaves werent owned anymore if the owner died only when the owner had a will stating them becoming free if they were to pass.

The estimation of Native Americans from 10-90 million of them inhabited America the time when the Europeans came. They lived in the land many years before anyone stepped on the territory. It was told that during the ice age they explored a land bridge across the Bering sound, from Siberia into what has been discoverd as Alaska.They went across the world and went south into Mexico and further. The name Indian was labeled by an explorer named "Christopher Columbus" which he believed as a mistake him finding out he was in the Indies. They were called Indians, American Indians and now they are permanently called Native Americans. They moved to all regions of the land and were molded into bunches of tribes or nations. Even outsiders learned to deal with their ways and started making do with the resources that was provided. They equipped into respecting the land and many things it provided. The Natives introduced them self into fishing, hunting and farming, growing crops like corn and they also built homes with whatever they had .They used different materials depending on the regions. Native Americans besides christopher columbus was originally the first ones to locate in america and make it essential as the land and the world is today, without their past resources , ways in life would be difficult to understand.
