Info about the abolition of slavery please?

The importation of slaves from other countries was banned in 1808, but the selling of slaves within our borders continued. Conflict grew during the 19th century between the northern and southern states over the issue of slavery. The northern states were going through an industrial revolution and desperately needed people to work in its factories. Industrialists in the North believed that, if freed, the slaves would leave the South and provide the labor they needed.

In 1831, Arthur and Lewis Tappan established the first Antislavery Society in New York. Two years later it became a national organization, and Tappan was elected its first president. Other early abolitionists (persons who actively fought to end slavery) soon emerged as leaders of the movement:

Angelina and Sarah Grimke

Frederick Douglass

John Greenleaf Whittier

Lucretia Mott

Lydia Maria Child

Robert Purvis

Samuel Eli Cornish

Theodore Weld

Wendell Phillips

William Lloyd Garrison

William Wells Brown

Can only write in narrative.. the abolition of slavery was one of the outcomes of the Enlightenment. It progressed through three stages. The outlawing of slaves in UK in 1772 Then the suppression of the international trade in 1807 by the UK and Finlay in the Colonies in1833. Th british took the lead here because they were mainly responsible for the Business. Business men setup a triangulsr trade. FRom UK to Africa then to West indies with cargo of slaves then onto american colonies to collect American exports an back to Uk. The economic case was that cheap labour was neede to maximise profit from West Indies. It is most interesting to see the tortuous routes that the new USA went to to accommodate slavery and it was not ti the Civil War that it was ended. It was ,eventually, only found in the cotton growing South where it was believed that it was necessary to the economics of the South. Modern historians argue that in fact it kept the South back economically such that it only emerged after WW2.

Slavery hasn't been abolished, it has gotten worse. We are all now bond servants for the national debt. The government essentially owns us, they have superior guardianship rights over us. When our births are registered your parents legally give you away to the government. They abandon you without realising it. For more info please read the following links:
