The Massachusetts Anti-Slavery Society

The Massachusetts Anti-Slavery Society, founded in 1835, was a prominent organization dedicated to ending slavery and promoting equal rights for African Americans. It brought together abolitionists to advocate for the abolition of slavery through activism, education, and political action. The society also worked to oppose discriminatory laws and support efforts toward racial equality. By uniting people committed to justice, it played a significant role in the broader abolition movement in the United States, helping to raise awareness and push for social and legal change during the 19th century.
