movement?
select a response.

○ to move all enslaved people to northern states.

○ to limit the number of years a person could be enslaved.

○ to bring an end to legalized slavery.

○ to free the children of enslaved people.

Explanation:

The abolitionist movement aimed to end slavery entirely. The first option is incorrect as the movement wasn't about relocating enslaved people. The second option is wrong because abolitionists wanted to end slavery, not limit its duration. The fourth option is incorrect as the goal was broader than just freeing children. The correct goal was to end legalized slavery.

Answer:

C. To bring an end to legalized slavery.
