Fight against Slavery

INSTRUCTIONS:

Analyze the contents of five surviving issues of this newspaper and then use your findings to argue against the following claim: “The Rights of All was published in 1829, two years after the emancipation of the state of New York’s last remaining bondspeople in 1827. As such it was not engaged in the fight against slavery in America.” To argue your case, you will need to offer a definition of what it means to “fight against slavery” and then demonstrate that the contents of the Rights of All meet your definition.
