How can Vassa's associates be classified according to rank, political importance, religious affiliation?
Some were enslaved individuals like himself, although these are not many. Others were associated with trade in slaves, plantation ownership, and political representation of these interests. He also knew many of the abolitionist reformers, who were mostly Quakers and dissenting Unitarians and others who were appalled by slavery. He also had a family and occasionally moved in circuits associated with the sciences, music, Huntingdonianism, and the London Corresponding Society.
