(GARRISON, William Lloyd.) A PROTEST AGAINST COMPULSORY VACCINATION
An imprint of a Boston, dated 14 May 1902 by William Lloyd Garrison (1838–1909), a prominent advocate of the single tax, free trade, women's suffrage, and of the repeal of the Chinese Exclusion Act. Also son of the notable reformer with the same name.
8 vo., pp. 14; near fine.
In the document Garrison claims: “…the dogma had been accepted…without thought or examination…It is the custom to denounce as idiots or cranks those who presume to doubt the virtue of vaccination…blasphemy to say that a man should not fight against authority…loathsome diseases have been communicated by vaccination…”
An exceptionally rare document, and of the utmost importance, given the similarities with the arguments made during the COVID-19 Pandemic.
