Beriah Green Jr. (March 24, 1795 – May 4, 1874) was an American reformer, abolitionist, temperance advocate, college professor, minister, and head of the Oneida Institute. He was "consumed totally by his abolitionist views".[1]: 281 Former student Alexander Crummell described him as a "bluff, kind-hearted man," a "master-thinker".[2]: 49 Modern scholars have described him as "cantankerous",[2]: xv "obdurate,"[3] "caustic, belligerent, [and] suspicious".[4] "He was so firmly convinced of his opinions and so uncompromising that he aroused hostility all about him."[5]: 32
