The underground railroad ran to Canada for a reason and that reason was that Northern states did not want Blacks living there and made it as difficult as possible for them to do so.

The Fugitive Slave act had nothing to do with that of course. I understand that the North was totally evil, hated blacks, and the South just loved them like brothers. Is that your story now?

The Fugitive Slave act was certainly part of it. Part of it was that Northerners did not want Blacks living in their states. Its funny you act as though the accusation is that the North was all evil....when that is EXACTLY the claim the PC Revisionists have been making about the South all along.
