Letters to Catherine E. Beecher, in Reply to An Essay on Slavery and Abolitionism (Boston: Isaac Knapp, 1838)

Angelina Grimke (1805-79), like her sister Sarah Grimke, was a prominent abolitionist and an early crusader for women's rights. This excerpt shows the crucial role that the individualist principle of self-ownership played in the antislavery movement.

The Libertarianism.org Readers series provides an introduction to the major ideas and thinkers in the libertarian tradition.
