The wiki section titled "sudden emergence" makes no sense following an explanation in the wiki that abolitionism had already been around for decades. The title gives an incorrect impression. Something like new emergence or re-emergence would be more encyclopedic.— Precedingunsigned comment added by12.192.208.206 (talk)13:06, 20 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The history section end with the revolutionary war, only having a brief mention of 1850. Conversly, the motive section has a lot of content that should be in the History section and does not truly pertain to 'motives'.OwiBall (talk)16:34, 25 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I noticed that there were a few redundant sentences regarding certain events and abolitionists throughout the article. Omitting these sentences will help the article be more concise and flow better.DUwriting! (talk)14:38, 23 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
