The Gradual Abolitionists were advocates for ending slavery gradually by implementing laws and policies that would gradually phase out the institution of slavery. They believed that a slow and controlled approach to ending slavery would be more practical and less disruptive to the economy and social order. This approach contrasted with the immediate abolitionists who called for the immediate and complete end to slavery.
