Angelina Emily Grimké: “I believe the discussion of Human Rights at the North has already been of incalculable advantage to this country.”

Slavery may produce these horrible scenes if it is continued five years longer, but Emancipation never will.

And why not try it in the Southern States, if it never has occasioned rebellion; if not a drop of blood has ever been shed in consequence of it, though it has been so often tried, why should we suppose it would produce such disastrous…

There is nothing to fear from immediate Emancipation, but every thing from the continuance of slavery.

What can I say more, my friends, to induce you to set your hands, and heads, and hearts, to this great work of justice and mercy.
