Liberators

The Liberators were a group of characters that randomly popped into my (Discofurby's) head in a daydream. In the daydream they were a group of people who used to be slaves, but they went "on hold"--that is refused to work until they were paid, and they also set other slaves free. The leader of the Liberators was a woman whose niece the little girl "narrating" the daydream and she was referred to as Auntie Lou. Liberators generally wore black dresses (women) or grey suits (men) with a badge shaped like a dove. The people who owned the slaves called the male Liberators "greysuits" because of their outfits. They were sometimes seen carrying signs like protesters do today and sometimes anti-slavery people would dress up as Liberators to support them.
