Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from An Address Delivered Before the Ladies Anti-Slavery Society of Philadelphia: On the Evening of the 14th of April, 1836 Ladies - There is nothing that could more forcibly induce me to express my humble sentiments at all times, than an entire consciousness that it is the duty of every individual who would wish to see the foul curse of slavery swept for ever from the land - who wishes to become one amongst the undaunted advocates of the oppressed - who wishes to deal justly and love mercy. In a word, it is my indispensable duty, in view of the wretched, the helpless, the friendless condition of my countrymen in chains, to raise my voice, feeble though it be, in their behalf; to plead for the restoration of their inalienable rights. As to the character of the Anti-Slavery Society, it requires but one glance from an impartial eye, to discover the purity of its motives - the great strength of its moral energies; its high and benevolent - its holy and life giving principles. These are the foundations, the very architecture of Abolition, and prove its sovereignty. In fact, all associated bodies which have for their great aim the destruction of tyranny, and the moral and intellectual improvement of mankind, have been, and ever will be, considered as bearing a decided superiority over all others. And how well may this Association, before which I now have the honour to appear, be deemed one of that description; and still more is its superiority increased from a knowledge of the truth that it is composed entirely of your sex. It stands aloof from the storms of passion and political tumult, exhibiting in its extended and Christian views a disposition to produce an immediate reformation of the heart and soul.
