Chapter 21

In Chapter 21 of Bury the Chains, Adam Hochschild wrote about how the abolitionist were still attempting to stop slavery in Britain. After a bill was created and passed to stop 2/3 of the slave trade, within a year another bill was passed to completely abolish slavery, the only opposition was the amount of revenue Britain was making off of the slave trade. This was overlooked and the bills were passed, getting rid of slaves in Britain.
