The Fugitive Slave Act of 1850 was an act that passed as part of the compromise of 1850 that allowed runaway slaves that were cauthe to be returned to their masters and that the northern free state citizens and officials had to cooperate with this compromise. SB 1070 was a bill that passed that required all aliens over the age of 14 to have documents and to register with the United States government if they plan to stay for longer than 30 days. It would have been a misdemeanor crime to be in Arizona without the right documents and it gave the rights to the state law enforcement to stop, detain or arrested the individuals when there is reasonable suspicion that he/she were an illegal immigrants.

Sharecropping is the action of allowing workers, called sharecroppers, to work on someone else’s farm. This let former slaves find jobs; however, farmers found loopholes to exploit the former slaves. Because of this, the workers were rarely paid the amount they needed for their needs.
Even today the Americas are known for rich farmlands and efficient farming. The issue was that the demand for American silver and crops meant slaves were made to work harder, which would shorten their lifespan. This, in turn, prompted Europeans to search for even more slaves across the ocean, which would spark the whole cycle again like a warped perpetual motion
The treatment of slaves between the North and the South was drastically different. Slaves in the North typically lived in the same house as their master and worked by themselves, or in small groups (pg. 94). Slaves in the South tended to live in large plantations in which they were housed in plantation outbuildings (pg. 104). The difference between the North and the South in housing and working environment had a direct effect on the integration of African Americans into their new American society. When they were housed in the North with their masters and had limited exposure to other slaves, they tended to adopt the ways of their masters.

In the Caribbean, slavery was preferred; but in Russia, serfdom ruled.

By using this reference, it illustrated the severity of the alienation of blacks in the Southern United States. In 1619, a Dutch ship “introduced the first captured Africans to America, planting the seeds of a slavery system that evolved into a nightmare of abuse and cruelty that would ultimately divide the nation”. The Africans were not treated humanely, but were treated as workers with no rights. Originally, they were to work for poor white families for seven years and receive land and freedom in return.
