Bu makale, Amerika'da 19. Yüzyılda köleliğin Orta Doğu'daki karşılığına atıfta bulunularak abolisyonistlerin tartışmasını analiz etmektedir. Çalışma, abolisyonistlerin Osmanlı İmparatorluğu'ndaki köleliği Batı'daki kölelikten daha az baskıcı olarak tanımladığını ve Edward Said'in Orientalizm teorisini meydana getirdiğini ortaya koymaktadır. Makale, abolisyonistlerin İslam ile kompleks ve saygılı bir ilişki kurduğunu ve universal orientalist tartışmanın genel yönelimlerini karmaştırdığını incelemektedir. Bu çalışma, abolisyonistlerin kendi ülkelerine karşı sert eleştiriler getirdiğini ve Orientalizm kategorisini zorlaştırdığını araştırmaktadır. Ayrıca, Amerika'nın özyeterlik iddialarını reddeden abolisyonist arşivlerinin nuanslı perspektiflerini ortaya koymaktadır.
