Summary
Whereas scholars have typically viewed the movements described here in isolation, Friends of Freedom demonstrates how they developed as interconnected social movements that created political organizing as we know it. Friends of Freedom corresponded across movements and nations, seeking to model what a new inclusive regime of liberty could be. Modern social movements still use many of the same tools in building and spreading their campaigns.
