The right answer would be b) the Abolition Movement.

After 1776, there were advocates from both the Quaker and Moravian religions helping to persuade slaveholders down south to free their slaves.

This ocurred because Quakers' core beliefs involve equality and peace, and Moravians professed unity among all Christians.
