Answer:

The best answer to your question: How does Whittier portray Garrison and himself throughout the poem, would be: As warriors, and brothers, who are united in a fierce battle.

Explanation:

This question, is related to one of the many poems written by John Greenleaf Whittier, titled "To William Lloyd Garrison", published around 1832. First, it is important to note that Greenleaf Whittier was an abolitionist, and an admirer of one of the strongest abolitionists, William Lloyd Garrison. As such, when you read this poem you become aware of a person who is very much in awe, a huge admirer, of the subject of the poem, who appears mentioned in the title alone. After that, stanza after stanza, Whittier´s speaker, which we learn is he, himself, cannot contain his admiration for the person who, alongside him, has fought against the chains of injustice and oppression towards slaves. It seems that this hero has passed away, and Whittier entreats him to continue supporting him on this ongoing fight, but now, from his place in heaven, where he assumes Garrison has gone. After reading the entire poem, you get the idea that Whittier sees both himself and Garrison as two warriors, almost brothers, who are fighting alongside one another for the sake of ending this oppression.

Whittier portrays Garrison and himself as victims being crushed under the weight of oppression.

Explanation: In "Garrison" by John Greenleaf Whittier, the author expresses the abolitionist views he shares with Garrison. He writes about how slavery has past ("THE storm and peril overpast, / The hounding hatred shamed and still,") that their oppression will be lifted ("A hand to set the captive free!").
