[edit]

lay with the campaign against slavery. Committed to her goal, she organized a sugar boycott in Leicester and helped to form the 'Birmingham Ladies' Society for the Relief of Negro Slaves,' later to be renamed, 'The Female Society for Birmingham.'

In 1824, Elizabeth published a pamphlet, 'Immediate not Gradual Abolition.' In this pamphlet she argued in favor of an immediate end to slavery in the British Colonies. This argument differed from that of the 'Anti-Slavery Society' who advocated gradual abolition. William Wilberforce who was totally opposed to any woman being involved in any type of anti-slavery campaigns, delivered instructions to the leaders of the Anti-Slavery Society, to suppress any information contained in Elizabeth's pamphlet. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.25.214.186 (talk) 19:15, 14 December 2008 (UTC)Reply
