Slavery has made a substantial impact on American history and was the main factor that had provoked the Civil War. Though the outcomes of the war did grant freedom to the slaves, they were not given any rights as humans. Freedmen were continuously oppressed by the ?superior? whites, causing ?freedom? to just be a title with no meaning. Freedmen also faced adversities and disadvantages from racism, segregation, disdain, poverty, and violence for another century before they received equality. Although there were many attempts to bring equality to the blacks in the United States after they gained their freedom, there was minimal support due to the hatred fueled by the differences of skin color.

The liberty party was formed in 1840 by a group of abolitionists. It was created by two men, Arthur Tappan and Theodore Weld, in opposition to William Lloyd Garrison who believed that political action was a way to end slavery. The first party convention was in 1840. In 1844, the party influenced undecided legislators in many local elections to adopt antislavery stands. The party ended in 1848 when many of its members joined a group called the Barn burners.
