#14 American Anti-Slavery Society By Adrian Wiley

Antebellum Period Began after the War of 1812 It was the rivalry between the northern and southern states over various issues. It incorporated The advancement of women's rights The literary movement The growing incivility between the north and south The movement towards social reform The movement to expand towards the west. The abolitionist movement

Background Information The American Anti-Slavery Society (AASS) was formed in 1833 by William Lloyd Garrison Within 7 years, grew to as many as 200,000 members Members ranged from free blacks to rich whites Major part in the anti-slavery agenda After the Civil War, the group was dissolved. William Lloyd Garrison

Important Information Important members included Lewis and Arthur Tappan. The two and Garrison had different ideas: Garrison was anti-constitutional because he viewed it to be pro-slavery, and he and his members became radical. The Tappan brothers sought a gentler approach and together founded the American and Foreign Anti-Slavery Society. In opposition to Garrison, the Liberty Party was formed The Free-Soil Party eventually branched off in 1848 and after the Republican party in 1854. Lewis Tappan

Achievements and Importance Frederick Douglass and William Brown, both escaped slaves, became important speakers for the AASS. It was mostly the groups formed due to the AASS that achieved great things Groups like the Liberty Party and the American and Foreign Anti Slavery Society fought politically for the emancipation of slaves The Free Soil Party was small and short lived (1848-1854) but would turn the topic of slavery into an important discussion After the Free Soil Party, the Republican party was formed, and fought heavily for the spread of slavery into new American territories and ultimately the abolition of slavery. After the Civil War and the AASS's goal was achieved, it was dissolved.

Relation to Other Topics The AASS has many relations to the other aspects of the movement it was a part of. William Lloyd Garrison was the AASS's founder Frederick Douglass was one of the AASS's major speakers throughout its existence All had the goal of giving slaves their own rights and freedom Both the movement to abolish slavery and the movement to further women's rights had goals of giving an ill treated people greater rights Most importantly, every aspect of the American movement hoped to change America and its state of being
