Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Natick Resolution or Resistance to Slaveholders: The Right and Duty of Southern Slaves and Northern Freemen Capt. John Brown: Dear and Honored Friend - (for the friend of the slave is my dear and honored friend) - A very large and enthusiastic meeting of the citizens of this town, without regard to political or religious creeds, was held last evening, for the purpose of considering and acting upon the following resolution: - Whereas, Resistance to tyrants is obedience to God; therefore, Resolved, That it is the right and duty of the slaves to resist their masters, and the right and duty of the people of the North o incite them to resistance, and to aid them in it. This resolution was adopted by the meeting without a dissenting voice. Though a United States Senator (Henry Wilson) and a United States Postmaster were present, yet not a voice was raised against it by them, nor by any one else, nor against the sentiments it contains. The meeting appointed me a committee to forward their resolution to you. In compliance with their request, and with the promptings of my own heart, I forward it. The resolution, as you will see, simply affirms the right and duty of resistance, not merely to slavery as a principle or an abstraction, but to slaveholders, the living embodiment of slavery.
