Annotation |
A historian examines how thousands of enslaved people in America escaped into Mexico, where slavery was abolished in 1837. She describes how Mexico's increasingly radical antislavery policies fueled the sectional crisis in the United States in the years leading up to the American Civil War. Some violence and some strong language. 2020.
