‘Am I not a man and a brother?’ was a poignant well known phrase used to promote the anti-slavery movement by the Society for Effecting the Abolition of the Slave Trade, a British abolitionist group, formed on 22 May 1787. Josiah Wedgwood (1730-1795) became a leading member of this group and distributed jasperware medallions bearing this phrase (see image FDX9WK). The Slavery Abolition Act 1833 finally outlawed slavery in Great Britain and 30 years later Punch magazine plays on this phrase in 'Monkeyana' where an ape asks if he to is a man and a brother in response to the revised 'An Historical Sketch of the Recent Progress of Opinion on the Origin of Species' by Charles Darwin (1809-1882) which suggested man descended from apes. The cartoon accompanies verse by Philip Egerton in which Thomas Henry Huxley and Richard Owen argue about the theory of evolution and the Great Hippocampus Question.
