Lundy, Benjamin

(1789–1839) abolitionist; born in Sussex County, N.J. Observing slavery as a saddler in Virginia (1808–12), he formed a pioneering antislavery group soon after settling in St. Clair, Ohio (1815) and, risking harm, published several abolitionist papers, including The Philanthropist (with abolitionist Charles Osborne) and The Genius of Universal Emancipation (1821). He journeyed to such places as Haiti and Canada seeking colonies for freed slaves, and, though more of a gradualist, was an early influence on William Lloyd Garrison who coedited the latter paper for a time. In 1836 Lundy started The National Enquirer and Constitutional Advocate of Universal Liberty, which opposed the annexation of Texas as a slaveholders' plot. After racist mobs destroyed all of his papers, he briefly reestablished The Genius shortly before his death.
