George Stephen (abolitionist)
text:
Sir George Stephen was a British solicitor, barrister, author and radical anti-slavery proponent. He was the leader of the Agency Society, a ginger group of the Anti-Slavery Society. He advocated for immediate rather than gradual emancipation and adopted more agitating campaigning tactics. While he played a crucial role in the abolition of slavery, he was known to be quarrelsome and short-tempered. He became involved in disputes that damaged his career.
