Listen up, young ones, and gather 'round,
For a story of freedom and breaking new ground.
It's a tale of a campaign, a solemn fight,
To end slavery and make things right.
Long ago, in days of old,
People were bought and sold,
Treated like property, without any rights,
A cruel and oppressive plight.
But a brave few stood up and said, "No more!
We'll fight for justice, we'll even the score."
They called for abolition, for an end to this shame,
And a great emancipator, who'd help them proclaim.
Through speeches and protests, they spoke their minds,
And soon the legislatures started to find,
That slavery was a stain, a blight on the land,
And they worked to abolish it, hand in hand.
Homespun clothing, simple and plain,
Was worn by these heroes, without any shame.
For they knew that privilege was not their due,
And that true equality was long overdue.
Their struggle was hard, their road was long,
But they never gave up, they were forever strong.
Their fight for civil rights was a battle hard-won,
And they seceded from oppression, until it was gone.
So remember this story, and take it to heart,
For it shows that even the smallest can play a part.
In the campaign for justice, we must all take heed,
And fight for what's right, in word and in deed.
