What reading level is Testimony On Slavery book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Such are some of the consequences of slavery — consequences not imaginary, but which connect themselves with its very existence. The evils to which the slave is always exposed often take place in fact, and in their very worst degree and form; and where all of them do not take place — as we rejoice to say that in many instances, through the influence of the principles of humanity and religion on the minds of masters, they do not — still the slave is deprived of his natural right, de- graded as a... human being, and exposed to the danger of passing into the hands of a master who may inflict upon him all the hardships and injuries which inhumanity and avarice may suggest.
12 " From this view of the consequences resulting from the practice, into which Christian people have most inconsistently fallen, of enslaving a portion of their hretliren of mankind — for God hath made of one blood all nations of men to dwell on the face of the earth — it is manifestly the duty of all Chris- tians who enjoy the light of the present day, when the inconsistency of slavery, both with the dictates of humanity and religion, has been demonstrated and is generally seen and acknowledged, to use their honest, earnest, and unwearied endeavors to correct the errors of former times, and as speedily as possible to efface this blot on our holy religion, and to obtain the complete abolition of slavery throughout Christendom, and if possible through- out the world.
