- Abram_Colby abstract "Abram Colby was an American slave and politician who served in the Georgia House of Representatives during the Reconstruction era. A resident of Greene County, Georgia, Colby was the son of an enslaved woman and a white planter. He was free for fifteen years prior to emancipation. He was an early organizer of freed slaves. Colby and minister Henry McNeal Turner helped form a chapter of the American Equal Rights Association. Colby was known for eloquent oratory and represented Greene County in 1865 at a freeman's convention. A Radical Republican, Colby was first elected in 1866. In 1868, he was bribed by the Ku Klux Klan not to seek re-election, but refused to do so. In October 1869, he was beaten by the Ku Klux Klan in front of his family. Faced with debilitating injury, he was unable to work and did not seek re-election. In 1872, he was called before a joint U.S. House and Senate committee investigating reports of Southern violence.".
