What I remenbered from the video?

From the video I remembered many things such as:

California was a free state, New Mexico and Utah were becoming free states too. He wanted slavery to be allowed on the mexico territorry. Harriet Tubman was a spy of the USA during the civil, she contributed to the cretion of the underground railroad and she saved many slaves by sending them to the North and to Canada were they could be free.By late September, California was recongnized has a free state and New Mexico and Utah were created and they also signed the legislation by late September and Texas became has a slave state. The compromise was well suported by the nation. Slaves could have get 10$ if they said that they are slaves and 5$ if they say that they are free. If you lived in the north during the 1850's the south was far away. Harriet Stowe wrote a book called Uncle Tom's Cabin in 1852. Harriet family were abalonist or in the minister. Sha writes because she is very christians and she says that slaves should be treated with religions the same way as white people and not differently.Steven Douglas introduced the Kansas-Nebraska act and the big problem is that they wanted to make one state free and one state not free.Southerners wanted Kansas as a free state. In 1855 the election and the problem was that there are 3 million people living in Kansas and they got 6 million votes.
