The way McPherson is quoted ia a little misleading, it seems to disqualify generations of abolitionism from being abolitionist anymore. Some examples:

If you only read sites like this and not their actual sources you will think England and after GBE were like that. However, this fails to mention England had a no slave on this green land act since 1068 (William the conquer). Go to the British Archives and actually read the history. Wikipedia are full of revisionists. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A00:23C8:CDC:2C01:9177:B48D:546A:D700 ( talk) 20:33, 29 October 2023 (UTC)
Do we want this article to be about the activist movements to abolish slavery, or about the actual abolition of slavery? Or should we have two articles?
This article began as a brief look at the nineteenth-century movement to abolish slavery in the United States and the prominent activists in the movement. [1] As it grew to cover more countries it also broadened in scope, discussing not just the abolitionists such as the Society for Effecting the Abolition of the Slave Trade or the Société des Amis des Noirs but also the various acts and Acts of abolition such as France's 1315, 1794 and 1848, Britain's 1807 and 1833, and many more. A lot of recent additions have been about abolition.
Still, the title's remained Abolitionism, so much of our current content looks off-topic. On the other hand we don't have an article titled Abolition of Slavery; that redirects here. Should we have a separate article? Or rename this one? Or what? NebY ( talk) 19:21, 26 June 2023 (UTC)
And Portugal, the first country in the world abolishing slavery 1761? 2001:818:E98F:200:4D17:475:D18D:6692 ( talk) 10:37, 5 November 2023 (UTC)
I think that Liber Paradisus should also be mentioned. 193.207.157.50 ( talk) 09:53, 9 June 2024 (UTC)
