She believed it was immoral, and she couldn’t • understand why everyone else did not agree with her. Over the • years, she had gone to many lectures about the need to give slaves • their freedom. She had read many newspaper articles saying the • same thing. But the lectures and articles always annoyed her. They • were dry and hard to read, using complex legal arguments.
