KANSAS-NEBRASKA ACT

This event took place in Kansa and Nebraska on May 30, 1854.For this event to happen the people in the territories of Kansas and Nebraska decided whether or not to allow slavery within borders. The people involved in this were Anti-slavery leader John Brown and President Franklin Pierce.Stephon Arnold Douglas democratic of Illinois believed that people of territories should decide for themselves whether they wanted slavery. This event affected didn’t give us fair rights as humans slavery because the Missouri people voted in Kansas, the proslavery party won control and Kansas was voted to become a slave state. No I am not proud of what happened because it didn’t give us fair rights as humans and to decide whether or not to have slavery voted out.
