What reading level is An Appeal for Discussion And Action On the Slavery Question book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is objected to this particular application of the voluntary principle, and the objection is extended by some among us to certain other applications of it, that it lies open to the membership, and therefore to the possible control and per- version of any who choose to creep in unawares for such an end : that, however righteous the proposed end may be, it lies at the mercy of faction, requiring no qualification for mem- bership but a sentiment of opposition to slavery, and there- fore possessi...ng no security against such an influx of non- resistants, for example, as shall characterize the whole organization, and render it, at their will, an instrument to their ends. There is such a liability to perversion. Is it peculiar to the anti-slavery organization ? The objection, if it have any force, implies that it is; while, in fact, it is a lia- bihty common to this, with the Home Missionary, Bible, and Tract organizations. I have the Constitutions of those socie- ties before me, — societies, be it remembered, which have been sovereignly excepted from recent denunciations ot vol- untary associations, — and I ask to be shown a single limita- 16 tion to the privilege of membership, a single barrier against perversion in these, that is not found in the anti-slavery or- ganization.
