Explanation:

1.       How did the invention of the cotton gin affect slavery in the United States?

(did it create more or less demand for slaves, and explain why)

- First of all the cotton gin was created by Eli Whitney. The cotton gin was used for speeding up the process of removing seeds from cotton fiber. However, even though the cotton gin reduced the labor of removing seeds, it did not reduce the need for slaves to grow and pick the cotton. The cotton gin affected slavery in the United States by increasing the demand for slaves to keep up with the amount of cotton that the gin could pick.

2.      What was the Underground Railroad?  Your response needs to include and explain the terms conductor, lines, station, and freight.

-The Underground Railroad was a secret underground network used by slaves to get to the North so they could be free. Harriet Tubman, was a conductor who guided slaves on a risky journey so they could be free. A conductor is a person who guides other people(slaves) on a risky journey. Lines are the several routes used in the Underground Railroad. The station would be the destination of freedom in which the slaves were traveling to, and at last, the freight would be the fugitive slaves that escaped from their owners to be free.

3.      How did men like William Lloyd Garrison, Reverend Lovejoy, and Frederick Douglass participate in the abolitionist movement?

-Well to start all of these men helped lead other slaves to freedom with their ideas or they helped the public eye realize how much of a crime slavery was. To get into details, William Lloyd Garrison was an abolitionist that created and published a newspaper called "The Liberator" which was used to spread his opinion on anti-slavery and to convince others to become abolitionists. Reverend Lovejoy was abolitionist that published anti-slavery articles. Articles during slavery times led to him creating a newspaper called "The Alton Observer". Frederick Douglass was a slave that then became a free man who could write. Douglass wrote several writing pieces and speeches on antislavery, he then became the leader of many abolitionist movements.
