William Lloyd Garrison- was an editor and active in religious reform movements. He created a newspaper that was called the Liberator, and it talked about emancipation, which was the freeing of slaves without the slaveowners getting paid for it.

David Walker- encouraged slaves to fight for their freedom, instead of waiting for the slaveowners to free them. After Walker said this, many slaves joined the antislavery society to fight for freedom. He later wrote a book called the Appeal to the colored citizens of the world.

Frederick Douglas- he was born into slavery, but was taught how to read and write by the wife of his slave owner. The husband thought that teaching him how to read and write would not help him be a slave. This encouraged him to try harder and would be able to escape slavery. He later did and created a newspaper against slavery called the North Star.
