Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - In Baltimore, in 1871, a quiet coalition confronted a national question: what does justice look like for Indigenous peoples Voices from 1871 speak plainly. Report Of The Delegates Representing The Yearly Meetings gathers the Quaker yearly meeting proceedings of Philadelphia, New York, Baltimore, Indiana, Ohio, and Genessee, recorded at Baltimore, Maryland 1871. This 19th century conference report traces how the Society of Friends organised its Quaker Indian concern, weighing moral duty, practical relief, and the hard realities of a federal Indian policy debate in the Reconstruction era United States. The result is a sober, immediate window onto Native American rights advocacy at a moment when national policy and private conscience collided. You hear the texture of organised conscience: careful language, shared reports, and proposed steps for engagement with government officials. Read alongside scholarship, it sharpens the outline of how religious communities attempted to influence practice without abandoning their pacifist witness. As a complete text edition and historical document reprint, it serves as a primary source for researchers and a reliable American history reference for anyone interested in reform movements, religious activism, and the contested language of civilising and protection. Collectors of Society of Friends history will value its documentary clarity; general readers will find an unexpectedly gripping record of people trying to act responsibly under pressure. Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today - a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike.…
