Authors : Yahi Salim . Nait Kaci Lyes .
Abstract
England knew, during the eighteenth century, a campaign to eliminate slavery, behind it was a group of religious and legal personalities using various means to end this slavery. And this struggle resulted with the emancipation of slaves in England after the issuance of Judge Mansfield's decision in 1772. With the end of the last American Revolution in 1783 against England; the government issued a decree to free all black slaves who were loyal, and participated alongside England in the revolt against the American revolutionaries. The decision of 1772 led other slaves from several regions to influx to England in search of freedom, and their number increased with the arrival of the black loyalists, this created a social crisis, as these slaves became scattered in the streets of England begging for their livelihood. Some of the figures and the British government worked together to resettle them in another area.
