Respuesta :

Answer: A) advocating immediate and uncompensated emancipation

Explanation:

The American Anti-Slavery Society was founded by William Lloyd Garrison in 1833 as a society dedicated fully to the Abolitionist cause. They demanded immediate and uncompensated emancipation for all enslaved people and used the Declaration of Independence and the Bible to base their arguments.

Even though they met with a lot of opposition, they still tried their best to get their anti-slavery message across by writing to Congress, publishing journals and other forms of propaganda and even sending people to talk to the public about the horrendous institution that was slavery.
