Georgia. Report Adopted by the Legislature of Georgia on African Colonization.

Pamphlet, 8vo, uncut and unbound, 9 pp. Paper with slightly uneven middle fold, some minor folds and chips at edges, slight foxing, creasing, and staining; otherwise very good. This pamphlet presents the views of the Georgia Legislature concerning the use of funds to support the objectives of the American Colonization Society. The American Colonization Society was founded in 1817 with the goal of sending free African Americans back to Africa. The organization even established a colony for that purpose in 1822. However, not all parties supported this objective, and it seems like the Georgia Legislature didn't like the idea of Federal money being used to support the objectives of the African Colonization Society.
