In the scholarly literature, colonizationists and radical abolitionists are portrayed as composing perpetually warring camps. While that may have been true at the state and national levels of the movements, the evidence suggests that the relationship between the groups was much more fluid at the grassroots.

Slavery was important to these community elites. But other issues were just as important to them, if not more. / McAnulty College and Graduate School of Liberal Arts; / History / MA; / Thesis;
