Garrisonians

Garrisonians are followers of William Lloyd Garrison, a 19th-century American abolitionist and journalist. They believed passionately in ending slavery immediately and without compromise, advocating for racial equality and justice. Garrison founded "The Liberator," an influential anti-slavery newspaper, and promoted activism to eliminate slavery and promote civil rights. Their commitment helped galvanize the abolitionist movement and contributed to the eventual abolition of slavery in the United States. Essentially, Garrisonians were dedicated activists who prioritized moral immediacy and equality in their fight against slavery.
