... this work is a thoughtful, long overdue discourse on individual and group accomplishments. It is replete with absorbing illustrations, which when accompanied by insightful essays, depict the courage of those who labored for equality in antebellum Boston." ―Journal of the Early Republic

Courage and Conscience documents the black activism in 19th-century Boston that was critical to the success of the abolitionist cause.
