At an early age, William Lloyd Garrison became an abolitionist and became a founder of the American Anti-Slavery Association in the early 1830's. And he founded the anti-slavery newspaper the "Liberator" in 1831.

Opponents were many and feared that freed slaves would migrate north to compete for jobs and live among the white population.
