HELPP IMA GIVE YOU 25 POINTS Lucretia Mott (1793‐1880)

was a Quaker who was committed to black emancipation and women’s rights. Because of her opposition to violence of any kind, Mott did not support the Civil War as a means of liberating slaves. She did, however, welcome the War’s acceleration of emancipation. Of her principles she wrote, “I have no idea, because I am a non‐resistant, of submitting tamely to injustice inflicted either on me or on the slave. I will oppose it with all the moral powers with which I am endowed. I am no advocate of passivity.”
