Abstract
AbstractAs awareness of the contribution of African Americans to British Abolitionism grows, more details are emerging. The discovery of manuscript diaries, written by the Revd Peter Sibree, with reference to Moses Roper’s visit to Birmingham in 1838, have led to new knowledge about Roper and interesting perspectives on some of the controversies and discontents around the anti-slavery lecture circuit, especially in a growing industrial city known both for passionate abolitionism and the production of guns, shackles and whips used in the slave trade and slavery.
