In American history, figures such as Andrew Johnson and many Northern Democrats during the Civil War era would not be considered abolitionists, as they often opposed the immediate abolition of slavery or held views that were not aligned with the abolitionist movement. Additionally, many white Southerners and some Northern businessmen who benefited from the institution of slavery also did not support abolition. Their focus was often more on preserving the Union or protecting economic interests rather than advocating for the emancipation of enslaved people.
