There was a wide variety of ways that abolitionists tried to end slavery. Some tried to convince others of their way of thinking on public forums, while some tried to inspire slave revolts and other incursions. Most any way you could think of, as with any social issue in history.

Abolitionists tried to end slavery partly by petitioning some states to prohibit slavery and was successful in some states like Delaware. Also, David Walker, a free black man in 1829 exhorted slaves to rise up against their masters and the subsequent slave resistance to slavery developed into the civil war.
