Simeon Jocelyn : ウィキペディア英語版 | Simeon Jocelyn Simeon Jocelyn was a 19th-century white abolitionist and social activist from New Haven, Connecticut. He is known for his attempt to establish an African American college in New Haven and for his role in the Amistad affair. ==Abolitionism== Jocelyn served as the first pastor of the black congregation at the Temple Street Church in New Haven, Connecticut. A former student of Yale University, Jocelyn was also a leading advocate for the establishment of an African American college in New Haven. Working closely with both William Lloyd Garrison and Arthur Tappan, he introduced his plan to build an African American college to the New Haven community in 1831. Jocelyn's project was met with considerable opposition, and he eventually was forced to resign from his position as pastor of the African American church. Jocelyn's plan was so controversial that his house was later attacked by a white mob.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.yaleslavery.org/Abolitionists/jocelyn.htm )〕 Even still, these events did not prevent Jocelyn from continuing to work as a conductor of the Underground Railroad. In addition, Jocelyn also helped build a racially integrated neighborhood in New Haven.〔
