Phillis Wheatley's poetry did not directly lead to the end of slavery. However, her works were significant in challenging the stereotypes and prejudices about African Americans during the 18th century, and they helped to garner support for the abolitionist movement by showcasing the intellectual and literary abilities of enslaved individuals.
