Question

How did slaves — and many free people — fight the system of slavery? What happened after the Civil War?

Answer 1

Different people did different things.

Explanation:

First, many abolitionists (anti-slavery) published work, made speeches, and wrote books describing the harshness and immorality of slavery.

Slaves also fought the system of slavery by escaping. They used secret passageways and trails to get to free land (free states/the northern area). This system of passages was known as the Underground Railroad.
