These beliefs in inalienable rights (life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness) were used as a means of condemning slavery. ]]> 2018-11-13 01:24:30 UTC https://padlet.com/alukacher/dahi35x8sf7g/wish/303534042 alukacher https://padlet.com/alukacher/dahi35x8sf7g/wish/303534367 Following the Missouri Compromise, Northern states feared southern expansion would limit their political power with the rise in slave states. The so-called "Free-Soil" abolitionists thus emerged, who opposed the expansion of slavery and advocated that all unorganized territory be regarded as free. ]]> 2018-11-13 01:26:20 UTC https://padlet.com/alukacher/dahi35x8sf7g/wish/303534367 alukacher https://padlet.com/alukacher/dahi35x8sf7g/wish/303535398 A surge in religiosity among slaves led many to realize their humanity. In The Liberator, William Lloyd Garrison even remarked, "away with the horrible incongruity of giving them oral instruction, of teaching them the catechism, of recognizing them as suitably qualified to be members of Christian churches, of extending to them the ordinance of baptism, and admitting them to the communion table, and enumerating many of them as belonging to the household of faith!”]]> 2018-11-13 01:30:12 UTC https://padlet.com/alukacher/dahi35x8sf7g/wish/303535398 alukacher https://padlet.com/alukacher/dahi35x8sf7g/wish/303537957

Prevent southern expansion of slavery

Advocate for emancipation, though to varying degrees

• Some advocated for the gradual emancipation of slaves.
• Others, like William Lloyd Garrison, called for immediate emancipation.

Spread Abolitionist Ideals Through Printed Material

Hence, I am an abolitionist. Hence, I cannot but regard oppression in every form-and most of all, that which turns a man into a thing-with indignation and abhorrence.”
He was a firm believer in the extension of inalienable to all, even to slaves. He believed that it was unpatriotic to deny basic human liberties to slaves when the United States was founded on the very principle of inalienable rights]]> 2018-11-13 16:37:39 UTC https://padlet.com/alukacher/dahi35x8sf7g/wish/303857187 alukacher https://padlet.com/alukacher/dahi35x8sf7g/wish/303858151 Creator of the Liberator Newspaper, a pro abolitionism news source

From founding two different Abolitionist Societies to accusing the Constitution as a pro-slavery document to even supporting dissolving the Union, in which he believed that slave and non-slave states should in fact remain separate, William Lloyd Garrison played a major part in the success of the Abolition movement and in the defense of natural human rights.]]> 2018-11-13 16:45:19 UTC https://padlet.com/alukacher/dahi35x8sf7g/wish/303864281 alukacher https://padlet.com/alukacher/dahi35x8sf7g/wish/303868519 Abolitionism played a key role in the division between the North and South, where Southern planters felt personally victimized by Northern “elitists” who had no right to criticize the institution of slavery.

Though the Civil War would not end for another two years, the Emancipation Prooclamation remained in effect, and all slaves were eventually freed.
