Testimony of equality is a shorthand description of the action generally taken by members of the Religious Society of Friends (Quakers) towards equality, arising from Friends' belief that all people are created equal in the eyes of God. The word testimony describes the way that Friends testify or bear witness to their beliefs in their everyday life. A testimony is therefore not a belief, but is committed action arising out of Friends' religious experience. Testimony to equality has included Quakers participating in actions that promote the equality of the sexes and the racial equality, as well as other classifications of people.
