Read the excerpt from Thoughts and Sentiments.

It is therefore manifest, that something else ought yet to be done; and what is required, is evidently the incumbent duty of all men of enlightened understanding, and of every man that has any claim or affinity to the name of Christian, that the base treatment which the African Slaves undergo, ought to be abolished.

Read the excerpt from Letters of the Late Ignatius Sancho, An African.

That subject, handled in your striking manner, would ease the yoke (perhaps) of many—but if only of one—Gracious God!—what a feast to a benevolent heart!—and, sure I am, you are an epicurean in acts of charity.—You, who are universally read, and as universally admired—you could not fail

In these excerpts, how does Cugoano’s approach differ from Sancho’s approach? Cugoano calls for people to take small steps to end slavery, while Sancho asks for bold moves.
Cugoano appeals to his audience personally, while Sancho appeals to the greater public.
Cugoano is more willing to wait than Sancho, who is calling for immediate action. Cugoano has a much more authoritative tone than Sancho, who is respectful to Sterne.

In these excerpts we can compare the tone of Cugoano to that of Ignatius Sancho when they discuss the topic of slavery. Cugoano has a much more authoritative tone as he challenges the people. He tells the readers that something "ought" to be done, and that slavery "ought" to be abolished. On the other hand, Sancho's tone is more conciliatory. He appeals to the readers' benevolence and charitable spirit, instead of presenting abolition as a moral duty.

Cugoano has a much more authoritative tone than Sancho, who is respectful to Sterne.

Further explanation:

In this excerpt, we can understand the tone of the conversation between Cugoano and Sancho. Cugoano entreats all enlightened men to understand the degradation of humanity in the form of slavery, as it goes against the very precepts of Christianity, and violates the principles of being a good Christian. Cugaono believes that understanding the woes of slavery is a true Christian virtue, and a good Christian must be sympathetic to the cause of the abolition of slavery, and work towards the welfare of slaves, rescue them from the dregs of humanity. He challenges people that something concrete has to be done to relieve the slaves, some strong measures have to be initiated towards their welfare. However, Sancho takes on his message as an emotional appeal, as he does not thrust it upon the moral duty of people, but rather appeals to their conscience, benevolence and the general goodness of humankind to work for the cause of the abolition of slavery. Thus, both men have very different tones of appeal.

Slavery was considered to be an important economic component during the Industrial Revolution and subsequent colonization of the nineteenth century. Britain and many other European nations capitalized on these capitalistic trends that emerged during the nineteenth century. The governments of such nations did not take any measures to understand the problems faced by slaves, rather they aided in the discrimination of former slaves from native citizens. It was in this new era of enlightenment that the former slaves sought to build their own social identities by rejecting the discriminatory andunequal laws for slaves. Thoreau’s solution of observing civil disobedience gives the slaves a way to work towards their own emancipation.
