Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Andrew Jackson believed that African-American slaves should either remain in slavery or, if freed, should be sent abroad. This reflects the broader context of his time, where the idea of integrating freed slaves as equals in American society was not widely supported, and some proponents of ending slavery advocated for colonization or sending freed slaves to another country rather than integrating them into American society.
