Rinck, Jonathan. “Abolition’s Indelible Image.” Michigan History Magazine no. 6 (2009): 8.

Abstract: The larger-than-life graphic grabs your attention the minute you walk into the Civil War gallery of the Michigan Historical Museum. Depicting an African man in chains, its caption calls out: “Am I not a man and a brother?” Though conceived in England, the image played a significant role in galvanizing support for the abolitionist cause in America. There were two Michigan connections to it as well.
