The Abolitionist Movement

What is abolitionism? movement to end the slave trade and emancipate slaves In the 1830's abolitionists began to speak out in public Many religious people in the North saw slavery as a clear moral wrong that went directly against their beliefs. By 1836 more than 500 antislavery societies existed

Frederick Douglass Douglass taught himself how to read as a child before escaping slavery. He lectured against slavery throughout the U.S. and Great Britain. Douglass also started the anti-slavery newspaper The North Star.

Angelina and Sarah Grimké The Grimké sisters were daughters of a wealthy Charleston slaveholder. They gave lectures throughout the U.S. on the evils of slavery.

William Lloyd Garrison Garrison was a white abolitionist who started the anti-slavery newspaper the Liberator. Garrison also started the New England Anti-Slavery Society.

Underground Railroad an informal, constantly changing network of escape routes Sympathetic white people and free blacks provided escapees with food, hiding places, and directions to their next destination, closer to free territory. Harriet Tubman: famous Underground Railroad worker who had escaped slavery and helped hundreds of slaves to freedom

Harriet Tubman lead over 300 slaves to freedom During a ten-year span she made 19 trips into the South Tubman even carried a gun which she used to threaten the fugitives if they became too tired or decided to turn back, telling them, "You'll be free or die."

“I had reasoned this out in my mind, there was one of two things I had a right to, liberty or death; if I could not have one, I would have the other.” “I had crossed the line. I was free; but there was no one to welcome me to the land of freedom. I was a stranger in a strange land.”

Opposing abolition Southern slaveholders: an attack on their livelihood, their way of life, and even on their religion Slaveholders and politicians: slavery was essential to the economy; by 1860 cotton accounted for about 55 percent of the country’s exports Northern workers: freedom for slaves might mean more competition for jobs
