The Abolitionists

abolish: v. to put an end to; to destroy

The abolitionists of the 1800s had but one goal: to end slavery. Long before the Civil War began, they spoke up and took action against slavery. Courage gets built on the courage that comes before.

I'm looking forward to watching this tonight, 1/8 on PBS. I hope to chat with you about it when we meet this week.
