...law Josiah Wedgewood? Did the philosphy of the descent of man vis a vis evolution and the philosphy that "the slave is our brother" , as the Christmas Carol says, come as a point of contention in the Darwin home?
Josiah Wedgewood who made the famoud wedgewood pottery and waterford crystal things for Europeans of his day was part of the turning point in the history of the abolishion of the slave trade. He made a plate with the incription AM I NOT A MAN AND A BROTHER above a picture of a slave.
Was there any disagreements with Josiah, the father in law and his famous son about Blacks? Josiah clearly believed the slave is our brother and we should act so.
