All the slaves were brought into the US under the good Ole Stars & Stripes.

After all the New England families made their fortunes on the slavey trade, they said “free them”

Wonder if they wanted them sent back to Africa, so they could export them again?

That's what Lincoln wanted to do... recolonize a portion of West Africa with American Negros. That's how the country of Liberia got started.
