John Quincy Adams was born on this date in 1767. He was a White American diplomat, politician, opponent of slavery, and the sixth president of the United States.

Adams represented the Amistad Africans, in the Supreme Court of the United States. The Amistad Africans had seized control of a Spanish ship, where they were being held illegally as slaves. He successfully argued that the Africans should not be taken to Cuba but should be considered free and have the option to remain within the U.S. or return home as free people.
