Question

The abolitionist William Lloyd Garrison:_________.

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is B. The abolitionist William Lloyd Garrison attacked the U.S. Constitution because it condoned slavery.

Explanation:

William Lloyd Garrison was an American journalist and newspaper publisher who fought for the abolition of slavery.

Among those in the United States who insisted on the abolition of slavery were many who were unwilling to compromise and who did not abide by all the constitutional and legal provisions that allowed the keeping of slaves in certain regions. They demanded that slavery be ended immediately. Among them was William Lloyd Garrison, a young man from Massachusetts.

Garrison's actions made many residents of the North realize that keeping slaves was out of the question and that they had mistakenly viewed slavery as an inevitable thing. Garrison pointed out to the readers of his magazine all sorts of horrific incidents and made a frenzy against the slave owners and all who fought for them because they believed him to be executioners and human traffickers.
