Some Black individuals opposed colonization because they viewed it as a denial of their rights and identity, arguing that they were American citizens and deserved to remain in the country they helped build. Many believed that colonization was a racist solution to the "problem" of slavery and that it perpetuated the idea that Black people were not suitable for life in the United States. Additionally, some feared the dangers of relocating to unfamiliar lands, such as Liberia, and felt a strong attachment to their homes and communities in America.
