Pennsylvania Abolition Society

The Pennsylvania Abolition Society, founded in 1775, is one of the oldest organizations dedicated to ending slavery and promoting civil rights. It was established in Philadelphia by abolitionists who aimed to abolish slavery and support freed African Americans through advocacy, education, and legal assistance. Over time, the society has expanded its focus to address ongoing racial justice issues, promote equality, and support marginalized communities. Its work has contributed significantly to the abolition movement in the United States, and it continues to advocate for social justice and racial equity today.
