Contact seller2-star sellerFirst Edition. 1st edition of the founding document in the AntiSlavery movement. Original, sewn, tan, printed wrappers, untrimmed and unrepaired. A few smudges to front cover, both covers a little creased, spots to title page, and some stains, else very good, complete, untouched, and unrepaired. Scarce, and not only scarce (more… so in original wrappers) but of the utmost importance. Only 2 copies have sold at auction in the last 100 years (one of them without the wrappers). Rare Book Hub shows 7 more in bookseller's catalogs (some without wrappers) also looking back 100 years, and we found one more, but do not get too excited, it's not that rare or it wouldn't be $4,000. Nonetheless, if you are a librarian or collector who is interested in Black Americana and do not have this book, buying ours should be irresistible. Collation: octavo. 16pp. References: Sabin 52655n. LCP 6496. AI 13659. Not in Work. Not in Blockson. In announcing the aims and plan for the Society, this constitution proclaims: "We, the undersigned, hold that every person, of full age and sane mind, has a right to immediate freedom from personal bondage of whatsoever kind. We hold that whoever retains his fellow man in bondage, is guilty of a grievous wrong. We hold that a mere difference of complexion is no reason why any man should be deprived of his natural rights, or subjected to any political disability" The text concludes: "To do away the horrors of slavery, and prevent such ravages as are here depicted, we do most earnestly invite the co-operation of our fellow citizens; and we can hardly conceive how any one is entitled to the name of a philanthropist or of a Christian, who is either ashamed or afraid thus to show himself A Friend to His Country and A Friend to the Black Man." Arnold Buffum, President. Wm. Lloyd Garrison, Secretary. This bold declaration of principles marked a profound shift in abolitionist strategy, championing immediate and uncompromising freedom rather than gradual approaches that had previously dominated reform circles. The constitution's moral clarity and righteous conviction provided the intellectual foundation for a movement that would transform American society, challenging citizens to confront the nation's most grievous contradictionprofessing liberty while sanctioning bondage. Garrison and Buffum's manifesto elevated the discourse from political expediency to moral imperative, insisting that human rights transcended all considerations of economics, tradition, or racial prejudice. The NewEngland AntiSlavery Society was founded by William Lloyd Garrison and Arnold Buffum in 1832, with Buffum serving as president and Garrison as secretary. Garrison had begun publishing The Liberator (an antislavery newspaper) in 1831, when the topic was highly controversial. In 1833, Garrison helped establish the American Anti-Slavery Society as a national organization, while the New-England Anti-Slavery Society continued to operate regionally. The American Anti-Slavery Society became the largest and most influential organization opposing slavery up to the Civil War, and Garrison was identified as "the chief apostle" of abolitionism by Frederick Douglass, though their relationship evolved over time. Garrison's advocacy for immediate emancipation, as expressed in the Constitution of the New-England Anti-Slavery Society, helped shape the abolitionist movement's principles and approach to combating slavery in America.
