Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book presents an address given by S.P. Chase, an active opponent of slavery and advocate for the rights of oppressed people. His speech was delivered before the Supreme Court of Ohio following an 1845 case involving a freedom suit filed by Samuel Watson, an enslaved man who had escaped to a free state. Chase, along with his colleagues, argued that slavery could not legally exist in a free state, and that Watson was unjustly claimed as a fugitive. The book also underscores the racial prejudice and legal barriers that hindered the freedom of enslaved people. Through an analysis of the case, the author sheds light on the historical struggle for racial equality in the United States and the ongoing fight against discrimination and oppression.
