The anti-slavery group was intent on helping African Americans resettle in the Caribbean and Africa because their life became precarious in the United States.
African Americans have been treating as a second-class citizen in the United States. Moreover, they are always in danger as a consequence of racism.
These groups encourage African Americans to return to the lands of their ancestors and try to persuade them that they can do the same they do in the US, knowing that it´s not easy and is not cheap to return.
These groups try to convince African American that they will have the same rights and opportunities, and what is more important they will be safe in the Caribbean and Africa.
