Before the early 1830s, slavery was discussed calmly.
Since slavery was banned in the North, most of the
early abolitionists
were southerners.
![Page 5: Lesson 14.4a: The Abolition Movement Today we will identify major leaders of the abolition movement and their viewpoints](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103122/56649ce55503460f949b33fc/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
The first abolitionists were Quakers, who
believed that all people had the same
`spark of divinity,' making slavery
immoral.
Quakers were among the first to free their slaves. Some Quakers traveled the countryside urging
slave-owners to free their slaves.
![Page 6: Lesson 14.4a: The Abolition Movement Today we will identify major leaders of the abolition movement and their viewpoints](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103122/56649ce55503460f949b33fc/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
In the 1820s, Benjamin Lundy also urged
southerners to free their slaves, and for the nation to help free
blacks move to Haiti, Canada or Texas (which was still part of Mexico).
Lundy tried to use persuasion on slave-owners rather than
attacks and condemnation.

In the 1820s, a large anti-slavery movement emerged, supported by southerners and
represented by organizations such as the American Colonization Society.
![Page 16: Lesson 14.4a: The Abolition Movement Today we will identify major leaders of the abolition movement and their viewpoints](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103122/56649ce55503460f949b33fc/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
While those who believed in
colonization opposed slavery, they also believed
that blacks and whites could not live together in
harmony.
Therefore, while they urged slave-owners to free their slaves, they also raised money to pay for the
transportation of free blacks to West Africa.

William Lloyd Garrison was one of the most uncompromising
abolitionists of his day.
• He said slave-owners were evil and should not receive reimburse-ment for slaves freed by legislation.
• Abolition must be complete, immediate, and without compensation.
![Page 23: Lesson 14.4a: The Abolition Movement Today we will identify major leaders of the abolition movement and their viewpoints](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103122/56649ce55503460f949b33fc/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Garrison didn't care what other social or economic problems might be caused by
immediate emancipation.
• His words were so extreme and so harsh that he alienated many people who might otherwise have supported his cause.
![Page 24: Lesson 14.4a: The Abolition Movement Today we will identify major leaders of the abolition movement and their viewpoints](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103122/56649ce55503460f949b33fc/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)

In the South, Garrison was despised as one who encouraged slaves to revolt.
Copies of his antislavery
newspaper “The Liberator” were
banned, and a $5,000 reward was offered to
anyone who would capture Garrison and bring him to Georgia
to stand trial.

“I am aware that many object to the severity of my language; but is there not cause for severity? I
will be as harsh as truth, and as uncompromising as justice. On this subject I do not wish to think, or speak, or write, with moderation. . . I will not
equivocate – I will not excuse – I will not retreat a single inch – and I WILL BE HEARD!”
-- William Lloyd Garrison

In the North, free blacks could become involved in the abolition movement.
Some black abolitionists had once been slaves themselves, and could tell of slavery's horrors
based on personal experience.
![Page 43: Lesson 14.4a: The Abolition Movement Today we will identify major leaders of the abolition movement and their viewpoints](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103122/56649ce55503460f949b33fc/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Henry Highland Garnett and Frederick Douglass were rivals for black abolitionist leadership,
and they demonstrated the divisions within the movement.
![Page 44: Lesson 14.4a: The Abolition Movement Today we will identify major leaders of the abolition movement and their viewpoints](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103122/56649ce55503460f949b33fc/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Henry Highland
Garnett was the more
militant of the two, and as
early as 1843 was calling
for slaves to rise up
against their owners and
make themselves
free.
![Page 45: Lesson 14.4a: The Abolition Movement Today we will identify major leaders of the abolition movement and their viewpoints](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103122/56649ce55503460f949b33fc/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Garnett believed that any violence done by slaves in the act of freeing themselves was
justified on the grounds of self defense.
His stated belief was that it was
better to die free than live
as slaves.
![Page 46: Lesson 14.4a: The Abolition Movement Today we will identify major leaders of the abolition movement and their viewpoints](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103122/56649ce55503460f949b33fc/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Frederick Douglass was the best orator, black
or white, in the movement.
He had escaped slavery as a youth, taught himself to
read and write, and published his
Autobiography in 1845.
![Page 47: Lesson 14.4a: The Abolition Movement Today we will identify major leaders of the abolition movement and their viewpoints](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103122/56649ce55503460f949b33fc/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
• Like William Lloyd Garrison, Frederick Douglass published an antislavery newspaper, The North Star.
• He disagreed with Garnett on the role of violence in abolition, but not on the degrad-ations of slavery.
![Page 48: Lesson 14.4a: The Abolition Movement Today we will identify major leaders of the abolition movement and their viewpoints](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103122/56649ce55503460f949b33fc/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
He worked tirelessly with white politicians
and social leaders throughout the 1840s and `50s, and beyond
the Civil War.
Until his death in 1895, Douglass spoke out on
behalf of black equality, the rights of working people, and
for the right of women to vote.

Black women such as Sojourner Truth and Harriet Tubman also played major roles in
the antislavery movement.
![Page 52: Lesson 14.4a: The Abolition Movement Today we will identify major leaders of the abolition movement and their viewpoints](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103122/56649ce55503460f949b33fc/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
Sojourner Truth had been born a slave, and although
she was illiterate, Truth was a powerful
speaker who sometimes used songs
she had composed in her speeches.

The resolution on suffrage was controversial.
Elizabeth Cady Stanton and
Frederick Douglass argued that voting rights would give
women the political power they needed to
win other rights.

![Page 83: Lesson 14.4a: The Abolition Movement Today we will identify major leaders of the abolition movement and their viewpoints](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103122/56649ce55503460f949b33fc/html5/thumbnails/83.jpg)
The public was not ready to accept voting rights for women.
Many men — and some women —
believed that women were not suited to vote because they could not
think clearly and independently.
![Page 84: Lesson 14.4a: The Abolition Movement Today we will identify major leaders of the abolition movement and their viewpoints](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103122/56649ce55503460f949b33fc/html5/thumbnails/84.jpg)
The public was not ready to accept voting rights for women.
Church leaders taught that women by
nature were believed to be dependent on
men and subordinate to
them.
![Page 85: Lesson 14.4a: The Abolition Movement Today we will identify major leaders of the abolition movement and their viewpoints](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103122/56649ce55503460f949b33fc/html5/thumbnails/85.jpg)
The public was not ready to accept voting rights for women.
• Many thought that women's place was in the home, caring for husband and children.
• Entry of women into political life might lead to disruption of the family.
![Page 86: Lesson 14.4a: The Abolition Movement Today we will identify major leaders of the abolition movement and their viewpoints](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103122/56649ce55503460f949b33fc/html5/thumbnails/86.jpg)

In 1851, Anthony met Stanton and they began working together.
• Because Stanton wanted a more radical women's rights platform than just voting rights, the two sometimes disagreed.
• For many years, the two women crossed the nation giving speeches and trying to persuade the government that society should treat men and women equally.
![Page 88: Lesson 14.4a: The Abolition Movement Today we will identify major leaders of the abolition movement and their viewpoints](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103122/56649ce55503460f949b33fc/html5/thumbnails/88.jpg)
