William Lloyd Garrison (Newburyport, 12 december 1805 – New York, 24 mei 1879) was een Amerikaans journalist en dagbladuitgever, die met de pen streed voor de afschaffing van slavernij. In de jaren tussen 1820 en 1830 nam de campagne tegen de slavernij in heftigheid toe, aangezien de democratische idealen, die in deze tijd veld wonnen, in overeenstemming met dit streven waren en men steeds meer belangstelling kreeg voor het maatschappelijk leven en het uit de weg ruimen van bepaalde misstanden. Onder degenen in de Verenigde Staten die op afschaffing van de slavernij aandrongen, waren velen die tot geen enkel compromis bereid waren en zich niets gelegen lieten liggen aan alle constitutionele en wettelijke bepalingen krachtens welke het houden van slaven in bepaalde streken wel degelijk was toegestaan. Zij eisten dat aan de slavernij onverwijld een eind gemaakt zou worden. Lees meer op Wikipedia
