What reading level is Human Beings Not Property book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Terrible are the necessities and exactions of Slavery ! How can these gentlemen help knx)wing that these dec- larations are untrue? Do they not con- tradict the entire history of the eountrj'? Do they not contradict the repeated dec- larations of Madison on this very point? Has he not averred, over and over again, that the idea of property was carefully kept out of the Constitution, so that when Slavery should cease to exist in the States, there would be no evidence in that instrument that it h...ad ever existed at all ? And now this in- strument, so instinct with the spirit of Freedom, so abhorring the idea of prop- erty in man, that it would not be pollu- ted with the word slave, slavery, or ser- vitude even, this Constitution is assumed, by its own inherent force, without any . Express law or legislative sanction what- ever, to carry human chattelism into the Territory of Kansas, and if into the Territory of Kansas, into the State of Kansas ; for what right has Kansas, or any other State, to adopt a Constitution that contradicts or invalidates the Con- stitution of the United States?
