The abolition of the slave trade and the abolition of slavery represented two distinct but interconnected phases in the fight against the transatlantic slave system. The abolition of the slave trade focused on ending the transatlantic transportation of enslaved Africans to the Americas, driven by humanitarian efforts and economic shifts. Abolitionists argued that cutting off the supply of enslaved people was essential to dismantle the institution of slavery. In contrast, the abolition of slavery targeted the institution of slavery itself, seeking to grant freedom to those already enslaved. This phase was influenced by various factors, including moral and religious arguments, slave rebellions, and the growth of anti-slavery sentiment. The abolition of slavery required legislative action, such as the Emancipation Proclamation in the United States and the Slavery Abolition Act in the British Empire. Overall, while the abolition of the slave trade and the abolition of slavery were distinct movements, they were both integral to the broader struggle for freedom and human rights.
