To emancipate slaves on American soil, Jefferson thought, would result in a large-scale race war that would be as brutal and deadly as the slave revolt in Haiti in 1791. https://www.monticello.org/thomas-jefferson/jefferson-slavery/jefferson-s-attitudes-toward-slavery/#:~:text=Throughout%20his%20entire%20life%2C%20Thomas,of%20the%20new%20American%20nation.
