William Lloyd Garrison was an abolitionist who wrote weekly newsletters that sharply criticized the south and advocated for the immediate abolition of slavery. He organized the first anti-slavery society in New England and even co-founded the society. "Our country is the world- our countrymen are mankind."

He used an aggressive tone in his writings, for example, "I am in earnest—I will not equivocate—I will not excuse—I will not retreat a single inch—and I will be heard." He used an inflammatory tone, which helped show the importance of the abolition movement and helped bring it to a national level.
