This article aims to bring the history of the abolitionist movement in the City of Recife, emphasizing the legal and illegal actions that enabled the liberation of several enslaved people in the 1880s. The narrative construction of the work will be based on simple and direct language, making it accessible not only to the academic public, but to the most varied readers who are interested in the topic. On May 13, 1888, Brazil was the last country in America to abolish slavery. This condition was not the result of the State's benevolence, but rather of intense social pressure that came from the abolitionist movement and the slave resistance itself. In Pernambuco, anti-slavery corporations were responsible for promoting various legal and extralegal actions for the cause of abolition. Transitioning between legality and illegality, abolitionists in the city of Recife made it possible to release several captives throughout the 19th century, mainly between the years 1884 and 1888. In the long term, the actions of the abolitionist movement took on a large proportion, and was fundamental for Abolition to be achieved in the country.
