Description
"Slavery did not end without an organized and impassioned struggle. Many Americans, both black and white, thought it was inhumane and morally wrong to enslave another human being, no matter the color of his or her skin, and fought for the freedom of enslaved Africans in the United States. Learn about these abolitionists and freedom fighters from colonial days through emancipation, and discover how their work brought the country as far as it has come." -- Page [4] cover.
