Abolitionism Summative Assignment by Noah Flanders https://padlet.com/noah_flanders/xq9htrjvt7i7 Project for my Honors U.S. History Class en-us 2019-02-15 19:04:30 UTC 2019-03-28 18:24:56 UTC hello@padlet.com William Lloyd Garrison noah_flanders https://padlet.com/noah_flanders/xq9htrjvt7i7/wish/332866473 "As means to an end, these may sometimes be useful, though never indispensable; but that end must always be the freedom and happiness of man, INDIVIDUAL MAN.

Henceforth, the watchword of every uncompromising abolitionist, of every friend of God and liberty, must be, both in a religious and political sense—'NO UNION WITH SLAVEHOLDERS!'"
This shows how people were starting to realize that having slaves was taking away the persons rights as well.

This was the immediate cause of the late rupture and present revolution. Jefferson in his forecast, had anticipated this, as the "rock upon which the old Union would split." ]]> 2019-02-21 17:33:55 UTC https://padlet.com/noah_flanders/xq9htrjvt7i7/wish/333754509 Henry Highland Garnet noah_flanders https://padlet.com/noah_flanders/xq9htrjvt7i7/wish/333756415 However much you and all of us may desire it, there is not much hope of redemption without the shedding of blood. If you must bleed, let it all come at once.

This shows that some people felt like violence was the best answer.

servitude, and sell and treat them as we do our horses and cattle, that (it is true) has been
[formerly] countenanced by the . . . laws . . . but . . . a different idea has taken place with
the people of America, more favorable to the natural rights of mankind, and to that natural,
innate desire of Liberty, with which Heaven (without regard to color, complexion, or shape
of noses) . . . has inspired all the human race. And upon this ground our . . . Government,
by which the people of this Commonwealth have solemnly bound themselves, sets out
with declaring that all men are born free and equal—and that every subject is entitled to
liberty, and to have it guarded by the laws, as well as life and property—and in short is
totally repugnant to the idea of being born slaves. 

This shows how people know that they way slaves are being treated is unacceptable and against the bible even. ]]> 2019-02-21 17:45:02 UTC https://padlet.com/noah_flanders/xq9htrjvt7i7/wish/333761710 Letter From William Lloyd Garrison noah_flanders https://padlet.com/noah_flanders/xq9htrjvt7i7/wish/333765226 I am much pleased with the following sentence in your letter:--"However our opinions may differ on other subjects of equal importance, yet we trust in the cause of abolition our interest is mutual, our hopes and desires, our end and aim, one." This is noble. If all in our ranks possessed so catholic a spirit, there could be no jealousies, no rivalries, no divisions, no plottings for supremacy, among us. We should be invincible in our strength. I trust that I have ever manifested this spirit, thought it has not always been exhibited toward me. …


This shows that people even when trying ot fight slavery weren't always working together but trying ot do it there own way
