About This Item
[SLAVERY & ABOLITION] The Liberator Extra: Our Foreign Relations, featuring a printing of Charles Sumner's 1863 speech. Boston, 10 September 1863. 4 pages. 21" x 16." The Liberator ran between 1831 and 1865 with the purpose of spreading anti-slavery sentiment and propagating the abolitionist cause. It was the most widely circulated liberationist newspaper during the Civil War and antebellum period. Famously, The Liberator denounced the Constitution, a controversial decision which resulted in an eventual split between Frederick Douglass and the newspaper's white founder William Lloyd Garrison. Reprinted in this particular issue is Senator Charles Sumner's speech, which was given at the Cooper Institute in New York City. In it, Sumner addresses the impending foreign relations crisis and denounces any new power with slavery as its cornerstone. He states: "The mistaken sympathy for which Foreign powers now bestow upon slavery...under the plausible name of neutrality... will be worse for them than us. For them it will be a record of shame. for us it will be another obstacle vanquished in the battle for Civilization." Creased at folds and few other areas, some spotting. Overall in very good condition.
