The actual fight was because of the unconstitutional practices the Yanks engaged in toward The South.

Many Blacks owned slaves, too!
According to the 1830 federal census, free blacks owned 10,000 slaves, including in New York City eight free blacks who reportedly owned 17 slaves. Many black slave owners were large planters who raised cotton, rice, and sugar cane.
