Brief Explanations

William Wilberforce was a key British abolitionist. The 1807 Slave Trade Act, which banned British involvement in the transatlantic slave trade, was a major achievement of his parliamentary advocacy. Other options are incorrect: he did not affect US slavery (1804 claim), reduce penalties for runaways (1833 claim), or ban enslaved labor in factories (1833 claim; the 1833 Emancipation Act abolished slavery in British colonies, not factory labor specifically).
