! 4.7 Southern theater and Yorktown Cabinet and executive departments The Impending Crisis of the South There were economic and ethnic differences between free blacks of the Upper South and Deep South with the latter fewer in number but wealthier and typically of mixed race Half of the black slaveholders lived in cities rather than the countryside with most living in New Orleans and Charleston Especially New Orleans had a large relatively wealthy free black population (gens de couleur) composed of people of mixed race who had become a third social class between whites and enslaved blacks under French and Spanish colonial rule Relatively few non-white slaveholders were "substantial planters" Of those who were most were of mixed race often endowed by white fathers with some property and social capital for example Andrew Durnford of New Orleans was listed as owning 77 slaves. According to Rachel Kranz: "Durnford was known as a stern master who worked his slaves hard and punished them often in his efforts to make his Louisiana sugar plantation a success.".

Lincoln at Antietam Salmon Portland Chase (Chief Justice) December 6 1864 December 6 1864 Battle of Long Island Northern abolitionists attacked the war as an attempt by slave-owners to strengthen the grip of slavery and thus ensure their continued influence in the federal government Prominent artists and writers opposed the war the Transcendentalist writers Henry David Thoreau and Ralph Waldo Emerson attacked the popular war Thoreau who served jail time for his opposition turned a lecture into an essay now known as Civil Disobedience Emerson was succinct predicting that "The United States will conquer Mexico but it will be as a man who swallowed the arsenic which brings him down in turn Mexico will poison us." Events proved him right as arguments over the expansion of slavery in the lands seized from Mexico would fuel the drift to civil war just a dozen years later. Over time a large civil rights movement arose to bring full civil rights and equality under the law to all Americans. The current site was selected by President Eisenhower in 1958; the Dulles name was chosen by Eisenhower's aviation advisor Pete Quesada who later served as the first head of the Federal Aviation Administration As a result of the site selection the unincorporated largely African-American community of Willard which once stood in the airport's current footprint was demolished and 87 property owners had their holdings condemned, Whig Senator Thomas Corwin of Ohio gave a long speech indicting presidential war in 1847.

Julian and his fellow Radical Republicans put pressure on Lincoln to rapidly emancipate the slaves whereas moderate Republicans came to accept gradual compensated emancipation and colonization. Copperheads the border states and War Democrats opposed emancipation although the border states and War Democrats eventually accepted it as part of total war needed to save the Union.
