In Supremo Apostolatus



In Supremo Apostolatus is a papal bull issued by Pope Gregory XVI regarding the institution of slavery. Issued on December 3, 1839 as a result of a broad consultation among the College of Cardinals, the bull resoundingly denouces both the slave trade and the continuance of the institution of slavery.
