Quakers & Slavery : Welcome
Why
significant
The Quakers played a major role in the abolition movement against slavery in the U.S. Quakers were among the first whites to denounce slavery in the American colonies and Europe, as they questioned the morality of slavery and condemned slavery as un-christian. The Society of Friends became the first organization to take a collective stand against both slavery and the slave trade, later spearheading the international and ecumenical campaigns against slavery. Quakers have been noted and praised for their early and continued antislavery activity.
