| | Abolitionism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Using an argument based upon Natural Law and a form of social contract theory, they said that slavery existed outside of the Constitution's scope of legitimate authority and therefore should be abolished. | | | This issue arose in the late 1840's after the publication of The Unconstitutionality of Slavery by Lysander Spooner. | | | No one shall be held in slavery or servitude; slavery and the slave trade shall be prohibited in all their forms. |

| | The Transformation of American Abolitionism: Fighting Slavery in the Early Republic, by Richard S. Newman. Introduction. |
| | Abolitionist petitions routinely pushed state and federal governments to prohibit the domestic and overseas slave trade, to stop slavery's westward expansion, and to eradicate the institution itself in federally controlled areas, such as the District of Columbia. | | | By representing kidnapped free blacks in court, by bargaining with slaveholders for a fugitive slave's freedom, and by requiring northern courts to protect the constitutional rights of blacks, the PAS hampered slavery's legal protections nationally—turning bondage into a distinctly sectional institution with different legal sanctions in northern and southern courts. | | | By pressuring state and federal officials to craft abolitionist statutes, and by challenging courts to hand down pro-abolitionist decisions, Pennsylvania activists tried to delegitimize slavery's legal standing in the nation. |

| | Lewis Tappan and the Amistad Case |
| | The abolitionists and their lawyers had asked the Circuit Court of Connecticut for a writ of habeas corpus that would order the release of the three girls from custody. | | | In addition to the habeas corpus petition of the abolitionists, the case presented issues of criminal law, property law, admiralty law, and jurisdiction. | | | He blasted the abolitionists who shamelessly supported “notorious murderers” and “savages.” “When, in what country, at what period of history,” Argaiz asked, “has a slave been considered as enjoying civil rights?” Argaiz requested that the Van Buren Administration use “the law of habeas corpus” to “liberate” Montes and Ruiz. |

| | The Black Abolitionist Papers: Vol. I: The British Isles, 1830-1865, Edited by C. Peter Ripley. Introduction. |
| | Abolitionists usually shared a general interest in temperance, prison, peace, and other reforms, and they knew that reform meetings drew participants who were curious about slavery, if not active in the movement. | | | They asked for material goods rather than for money, which appealed to the British and which meant, in the case of the bazaar, for example, that they did not have to tend to details after the goods were collected and shipped. | | | Yet they seemed to favor new groups (or old groups that could be reoriented) that had a specific connection to the United States rather than to the British antislavery network. |

| | Yet he began to feel frustrated with Garrison's views on the means of abolishing slavery, and when he returned to the United States in 1847, he was ready to head the abolitionist charge. | | | This was the beginning of the abolitionist newspaper the Liberator, which Garrison used as a forum for his opinions on slavery and abolition. | | | During this period, abolitionists, those who "insisted slavery undermined the freedom, righteousness, order, and prosperity of all society" (McInerney, 8) sought to identify, denounce and abolish this cruel institution using their rights of free speech and free press. |
