No Compromise with Slavery An Address Delivered to the Broadway Tabernacle, New York

"No Compromise with Slavery" by William Lloyd Garrison is a fiery speech given in the 1800s that aims to convince people that slavery must be stopped completely. Garrison, a well-known fighter against slavery, makes a case that it's wrong to accept slavery in any way. The historical writing expresses the intense feelings of people who wanted to end slavery and motivates readers to take action against the cruelty of slavery in America. Garrison argues strongly for getting rid of slavery, attacking anyone who tries to excuse or make deals about it. He argues against the reasons people give for why slavery should be legal or morally acceptable. He points out that enslaved people are stolen from, and no person should be owned by another. Garrison refers to religious ideas and important documents like the Declaration of Independence. He suggests that freedom cannot exist where slavery does. With this in mind, Garrison urges people to free slaves right away without holding back, seeing no room for debate when justice and human rights are at stake.
