Content:
As the first college to admit men and women of all races, Oberlin supported a cadre of activist missionaries devoted to emancipation. Their philosophy was a colour-blind composite of various schools of anti-slavery thought aimed at supporting the best hope of success. This book shifts the focus of generations of antislavery scholarship from the East, and demonstrates that the region's influence was largely responsible for a continuous infusion of radicalism that helped the movement stay true to its most progressive principles.
