I know he started one of the first abolitionist societies in the United States, but I was reading an article about how black activists in New orleans are petitioning to have names of schools changed that are named after slave owners. the leader of the movement claimed that Franklin not only owned slaves, but sold them out of his general store. Where did he come up with this information?
