Excerpt from Collection de Mémoires sur les Colonies, Et Notamment sur le Régime Colonial, Vol. 5
Lorsque j'ai voulu traiter cette question de l'esclavage des nègres je me suis adressé d'abord à ma 'conscience qui m'a assuré que cétoit une malheureuse institution, et qu' on ne pouvoit la défendre sans condition. Voilà mon excuse pour les colons. Soutenir d'une manière absolue la nécessité la justice de la servitude des noirs! J'aurais frémi d'en con cevoir le projet. Il n'y a qu'un examen ré fléchi des rapports de cet état de servitude à l'intérêt national _et des suites désas treuses de sa dissolution qui présente des motifs justes et suffisans pour la maintenir.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book argues that the enslavement of African people in America is an unjust practice that violates natural rights and must be abolished. The author contends that enslavement is no more justifiable than paying laborers less than a living wage. The author further argues that while the condition of enslaved people may be better than that of poor laborers in some respects, such as access to food and shelter, they are ultimately deprived of their freedom and dignity. The author concludes by proposing a series of reforms to improve the treatment of enslaved people and to work towards the ultimate goal of abolition.
