Antislavery and Abolitionism
The revivalist doctrines of salvation, perfectionism, and disinterested benevolence led many evangelical reformers to believe that slavery was the most God-defying of all sins and the most terrible blight on the moral virtue of the United States.

Frederick Douglass: What to a Slave is the Fourth of July? (1852)

Anthony Kennedy: Supreme Court Decision in Obergefell v Hodges on Same-Sex Marriage, June 25, 2015
