Massachusetts, having granted voting rights early on to black males, was a center of antislavery agitation. Courage and Conscience documents the black activism in 19th-century Boston that was critical to the success of the abolitionist cause.
Documents the biracial cooperation that helped shape the enlighten racial situation of nineteenth-century Boston.
