Answer

The answer is the immediate abolition of slavery.

Explanation
Option 1: Ending slavery gradually, through compensation to owners.

David Walker did not advocate for a gradual end to slavery with compensation to owners. This approach was more aligned with the views of some other abolitionists who believed in a more incremental approach to ending slavery.

Option 2: The immediate abolition of slavery.

David Walker was a staunch advocate for the immediate abolition of slavery. In his pamphlet "Appeal to the Coloured Citizens of the World," published in 1829, he called for the urgent and uncompromising end to slavery. He believed that slavery was a moral abomination and that immediate action was necessary to end the suffering of enslaved people.

Option 3: The migration of slaves out of the Deep South and into the Upper South, where conditions were more humane.

Walker did not support the idea of relocating slaves within the United States. His focus was on the complete and immediate abolition of slavery rather than moving enslaved people to different regions.

Option 4: The reopening of the slave trade, which, he argued, would increase the number of Africans in America and ultimately weaken slavery.

This option is incorrect as well. Walker was vehemently opposed to the institution of slavery and would not have supported the reopening of the slave trade. His writings were aimed at ending slavery, not perpetuating it through increased importation of enslaved Africans.
