Abolitionist Movement

abolitionist movement London meeting


Caption: The antislavery movement sought to end the enslavement of Africans and people of African descent in Europe, the Americas, and Africa itself. The abolitionist movement grew from a small faction in the 1820s to a powerful social and political movement by the 1840s and 1850s.
