Wesley did several great things some that I failed to mention because the list is so long. He wrote hymns and preached sermons that are still being read today, but for me the extent he went to help people. That is what really sticks with me after all the research, all the articles and lists of great things he accomplished. I guess because I have the fear of that sort of lifestyle going away. People are so caught up with themselves and what they are involved in that we hardly look up from our laptops or phones to see that there are people all around us that are in need.
Although many attempts were made to prioritize freedom and equality for all, these values were undermined by racist Southerners who wouldn’t accept equality. In the end, Reconstruction had failed and former slaves endured another hardship akin to slavery. However, Reconstruction still could have prospered. There are multiple events that, if they had occurred, Reconstruction would not have failed.

He, however, was not appeased because he feared one day the slave owners could sell his wife and children to a land far away.
Nothing would have happen to abolish the black codes if it weren’t for the moderates. In 1866 the moderates produced two bills. The first bill was Freedman’s Bureau Bill. This bill distributed food, supervised labor contracts, and sponsored school for freedman. Big surprise, Johnson vetoed the bill.
One common mission the British had when coming to the America was to spread religion. They introduced Christianity the most throughout the land. Sometimes the people weren’t as accepting of the new religion and which the British would then try to force it on them, although this called many disputes. Another influence the European’s had was, they influenced slavery. It was a way to not have to pay for people to do the work or pay little to nothing and keep the majority of the profits to yourself.

The South could not let this happen because their economy depending on slavery. Since the slave masters did not have to pay their workers, everything they sold was 100% profit to the South. If slavery was abolished, they’d have to find other ways to farm their plantations and would undoubtedly make less money.
As Lincolns main goal was to preserve the union because without the Union the slaves wouldn’t have even been given the chance to be free. Many factors lead up to the divide from the economic differences as in what’s best for the union, the political problems of who would be the future president, and when you look at these issues slavery played a part in all of these issues.
