Henry Wilson’s life was a testament to perseverance, conviction, and an unyielding commitment to justice. Born into poverty and indentured as a child, he rose to become a U.S. Senator, a leading abolitionist, and Vice President of the United States.

A fierce opponent of slavery, Wilson helped shape the Free Soil and Republican parties, fought to end “Slave Power,” and championed civil rights during Reconstruction.

His legacy is one of relentless advocacy for equality and an unwavering belief in American freedom.
