Abolitionists employed all manner of strategies to persuade the American public and its leadership to end slavery. One of their first strategies was to unite groups of like-minded individuals to fight as a body. Initially, groups like the American Anti-Slavery Society used lecturing and moral persuasion to attempt to change the hearts and minds of individuals. Many later activists found moral persuasion tactics insufficient and turned their attention to political lobbying.

the abolitionists
No, they were not. Free-Soilers wanted to stop the spread of slavery, while abolitionists wanted to abolish it alltogether.

If a boy messaged you that he fancies you, that means he likes you or has a crush on you.
The Free Soilers were a political party founded in 1848 that opposed the expansion of slavery into new territories. They were not necessarily abolitionists, as their primary goal was to prevent the spread of slavery rather than advocate for its immediate end. Abolitionists, on the other hand, were individuals and groups who sought the immediate emancipation and abolition of slavery.
Publishing was important to abolitionists because it allowed them to spread their message to a wider audience, educate the public about the horrors of slavery, and garner support for the abolitionist cause. Through pamphlets, newspapers, books, and speeches, abolitionists were able to reach people across different geographical locations and influence public opinion.
