US History to 1865: College Foundations - Crisis Approaches | US History to 1865 | Study Hall

History doesn’t always fit neatly into patterns and themes! Some events, policies, or powerful decisions are what historians call turning points. In this episode, Dr. Danielle Bainbridge talks about three of the turning points in the mid-1800s -- the Fugitive Slave Act, the founding of the Republican Party, and Bleeding Kansas -- that led us to the United States's bloodiest conflict to date – and the end of our series: the Civil War. __________________________________________________________________________ You're already learning about U.S. History — why not get credit for it?
