Our study begins with a frank discussion of slavery, its impact on American life, and the constitutionality question.
Rogers takes us on a transcendent yet rugged tour of Vermont, a land virtually untouched by the scourge called "Colorphobia."
Rogers introduces Cinques and the Amistad rebels, who showed that a chance at liberty and autonomy was more precious than life under slavery.
Rogers explains how northerners, too, were complicit in slavery and cautions that political revolution alone would not create an abolitionist society.
Offering his dismal reflections on the World Anti-Slavery Convention, Rogers reminds readers that the abolitionist revolution is no bureaucratic body.
Our author and his compatriots revel in their minority status, fighting The Good Fight, and suffering along the way.
In a community-building activist junket, Rogers and William Lloyd Garrison hunt for honest souls in the forests and hills of New Hampshire.
