An Appeal in Favor of That Class of Americans Called Africans is a book written by Lydia Maria Francis Child and first published in 1836. The book is a passionate call to end slavery and racial discrimination against African Americans in the United States. Child argues that slavery is a moral evil and that the enslavement of human beings is incompatible with the principles of democracy and the Christian faith. She also challenges the prevalent stereotypes of African Americans as inferior and argues that they are entitled to the same rights and freedoms as white Americans. The book includes stories of enslaved individuals and their struggles for freedom, as well as practical suggestions for how abolitionists can work to end slavery. Overall, An Appeal in Favor of That Class of Americans Called Africans is a powerful and influential work in the history of the abolitionist movement and the fight for racial justice in America.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
