Answer:
The Second Great Awakening helped spark the abolitionist movement.
Explanation:
The Second Great Awakening or Second Great Revival (1790–1840) was a time of unusual Christian revival or revival that would extend to the American antebellum period, characterized by an unprecedented Christian evangelizing activity and large numbers of conversions. Its name is due to the Great Awakening, a similar period that had taken place about half a century earlier. It produced a deep feeling in churches and congregations throughout New England, the Mid-Atlantic area, the Northwest and the southern United States. Because of this, preachers such as Charles Finney, Lyman Beecher, Barton Stone, Peter Cartwright and Asahel Nettleton ended up becoming well known. The identification of evangelization with social causes was intensified, which calmed in American life in areas such as prison reform, abolitionism and the promotion of abstinence.
