Northern Abolitionists were individuals and groups in the Northern United States who actively opposed slavery and sought its immediate end during the 19th century. They employed various methods, including literature, speeches, and forming organizations like the American Anti-Slavery Society, to advocate for emancipation and civil rights for African Americans. Prominent figures included Frederick Douglass, William Lloyd Garrison, and Harriet Beecher Stowe, who used their voices and writings to raise awareness and mobilize public opinion against the institution of slavery. Their efforts played a significant role in the broader abolitionist movement leading up to the Civil War.
