Who were known as the abolitionists

Abolitionist was a name used to describe people across the world who were proponents for the abolition of slavery and emancipation of slaves during the  heights of slavery in the 17th to 19th centuries. In America, they were significant in the American Civil War since one of the main issues for the war was the abolition of slavery by the Southern States of the US.

the three-fifths compromise was proposed by james wilson and roger sherman, who were both delegates for the constitutional convention of 1787. however, the three-fifth compromise has its roots further back in history, dating back to the continental congress in 1783. the compromise was a result of the apportionment of taxes being related to land values.
