8 sept 1840 año - Anti-Slavery Society Splits

Descripción:

"The American Anti-Slavery Society divides over the issue of women's rights.

The division exposed the gap between moderate abolitionists, who supported peaceful change through existing social structures, and radical abolitionists who supported immediate recognition of the human rights of all people."

Why are the moderate abolitionists described as "peaceful" here?
