1853 1ed American Slave Code by Goodell pre Civil War Abolitionist anti SLAVERY
William Goodell was a notable 19th-century American abolitionist who helped found important anti-slavery societies in the North. He promoted church reforms that were designed to teach churchgoers the horrors of slavery, as well as teaching against the prejudices that surrounded equal rights for African Americans.
One of his most important books was ‘The American Slave Code’, a pre-Civil War work that directly countered many of the pro-slavery writings that justified slavery. He argued that slavery led to great costs of humanity that were far greater than the economic boost that slavery provided.
