The Abolitionist Movement: 10 Figures Who Fought for Freedom by Vera Darax is a powerful tribute to the men and women who dared to confront one of history’s greatest moral evils—slavery.

Through activism, writing, public speaking, and underground resistance, their voices helped turn the tide of history.
