The anti-slavery movement found a strong voice in literature, the media, and the press
One of its most influential writers and publishers was William Lloyd Garrison
Garrison established the most popular anti-slavery newspaper of the era: The Liberator
Through his paper, Garrison called for the “immediate and complete emancipation” of all slaves in America, which was a bold and radical new stance
The Liberator was very popular, and it inspired reformers to found new abolition groups throughout the North, including the American Anti-Slavery Society in 1833
By 1840, the society had over 1000 chapters or branches.
