#2. Do you think Colonial Quakers owned slaves?
William Penn was granted his colony in Pennsylvania in 1681. Though he flooded the "Holy Experiment" with Quakers whose descendants would later find their faith incompatible with slaveholding, the original Quakers had no qualms about it.

Penn himself owned slaves, and used them to work his estate, Pennsbury.

• Quakers had been debating the morality of slavery for a century, but moral outrage was only one factor in slavery's demise in Pennsylvania, and not always the overriding one. Economics, politics and a propensity for slaves to free themselves had a lot to do with it.
