naake,

I'm curious about the reason you specify New England abolitionist movements. I'm aware that they were loud and vocal, not to mention determined. Do you see a fundamental difference between them and groups like Quakers, the Pennsylvania Anti-Slavery Society, the Manumission movement, etc. Did New England abolitionists actually accomplish more, or do we point to New England for some reason I'm missing (quite possible) ?
