Explanation:
Abolitionists - militant opponents of 19th-century slavery in the US, also associated with European fighters against slavery.
The abolition of slavery became a major cause of conflict between the North and the South, and it, including each state's right to decide whether to allow slavery, eventually led to the American Civil War (1861-1865).
The first organized effort to oppose slavery occurred in 1775 when Benjamin Franklin and Dr. Benjamin Rush proved that slavery was contrary to the ideals of the Declaration of Independence and brought together the first anti-segregation group in Philadelphia.
The founders included Thomas Payne and Alexander Hamilton.
