Synopsis
"Am I Not A Man? And A Brother? With All Humility Addressed To The British Legislature" by Peter Peckard is a pamphlet that argues against the slave trade and asserts the equal humanity of Africans. Peckard contends that slavery violates natural rights and Christian ethics, and challenges claims that Africans are nonhuman. He analyzes biblical arguments historically used to defend slavery, arguing that Africans are capable of reason, moral virtue, and religious belief. The tract advocates abolition, with consideration for a gradual emancipation, and urges Parliament to enact reform while acknowledging practical economic and political realities. Drawing on examples and testimonies from contemporaries such as Benezet and Clarkson, Peckard emphasizes universal benevolence, the rights of man, and the Christian duty to relieve human misery. The work surveys the horrors of the slave trade and argues that public policy should promote liberty and justice for all, rather than profits derived from human suffering.
