William Lloyd Garrison

Born in 1805, William Lloyd Garrison has made many achievements in the anti slavery and women's rights acts. He made sure that he was heard nationally via newspapers,speeches, and works of literature he did. He published a newspapeer named "The Liberator",which he spoke eloquently about the anti slavery and womens rights movements.His inspiration came from his mother when he was young. This is because  his family was forced into hard times then the Embargo act was passed and his father abandoning the family once it hit.He believes that wonen should be allowed to participate in the Anti-slavery society, and should not be opressed to men.
