Human Beings as Commodities June 7, 1832 Washington DC

Description: Human Beings as Commodities THE NATIONAL INTELLIGENCER, Thursday June 7, 1832. [Washington, D.C., complete issue of 4 pages, large folio]. One of the great early newspapers, founded in 1801 as the de facto public relations organ of the Jefferson administration. The issue offered here is selected for its highly collectible advertisements, offering slaves being sought as runaways and offering rewards for the return of runaways to their masters, making this powerful first-hand documentation of the reality of slavery in America. The frequent appearance of runaway ads in these papers demolishes the slaveholders' propaganda of the docile, contented "servant", which is the euphemism often used. The ads also bring to mind the admission by great human rights activist Fred Douglass that he was a criminal in the eyes of the law - guilty of the "crime" of stealing his own body from his "master"! Condition is fine, with full news of the day, opinion and ads of every kind. Text courtesy P.
