Question

Group that wanted to end slavery

Answer 1

A group that wanted to end slavery was the Abolitionist movement of the late 1700s and early 1800.

It was an effort in the USA that promoted the belief that all men are created equal. With time the abolitionists grew bold in their demands while slave owners resisted and became entrenched in opposing the abolitionists, a situation that fuelled regional divisiveness that ultimately resulted in the American civil war.

The abolitionist kept pressing the Lincoln administration to end slavery and in 1863, the Emancipation Proclamation was made.
