As one of the first places for fugitives from slavery to end up after their travels on the Underground Railroad, and a place where many people called for a new Black utopia, Ontario has a rich history of Black and Abolitionist publishing. The Abolitionist Newspaper site includes four titles: The Voice of the Fugitive, The Voice of the Bondsman, The Provincial Freeman and The True Royalist and Weekly Intelligencer. All are fully searchable and the site also includes background information about the publications.
