Historical Context: In 1828 New York State abolished slavery. Throughout the 1830's and 1840's several abolitionist newspapers such as William Lloyd Garrison's "The Liberator" and Frederick Douglass's "The North Star" became the catalysts to abolish slavery. The Free American, the Emancipator founded by the Liberty Party ran pro-abolitionist candidates between 1840 and 1844 which were featured in the newspaper.
