44. Africans In America/Part 4/Frederick Douglass Speech
    1854 Speech attacking the hypocrisy of the 4th of July celebrations during times of slavery.  
    http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/aia/part4/4h2927t.html
    
    Extractions: Fellow Citizens, I am not wanting in respect for the fathers of this republic. The signers of the Declaration of Independence were brave men. They were great men, too Ñ great enough to give frame to a great age. It does not often happen to a nation to raise, at one time, such a number of truly great men. The point from which I am compelled to view them is not, certainly, the most favorable; and yet I cannot contemplate their great deeds with less than admiration. They were statesmen, patriots and heroes, and for the good they did, and the principles they contended for, I will unite with you to honor their memory.... ...Fellow-citizens, pardon me, allow me to ask, why am I called upon to speak here to-day? What have I, or those I represent, to do with your national independence? Are the great principles of political freedom and of natural justice, embodied in that Declaration of Independence, extended to us? and am I, therefore, called upon to bring our humble offering to the national altar, and to confess the benefits and express devout gratitude for the blessings resulting from your independence to us? Would to God, both for your sakes and ours, that an affirmative answer could be truthfully returned to these questions! Then would my task be light, and my burden easy and delightful. For who is there so cold, that a nation's sympathy could not warm him? Who so obdurate and dead to the claims of gratitude, that would not thankfully acknowledge such priceless benefits? Who so stolid and selfish, that would not give his voice to swell the hallelujahs of a nation's jubilee, when the chains of servitude had been torn from his limbs? I am not that man. In a case like that, the dumb might eloquently speak, and the "lame man leap as an hart."

    A site about Fred Morsell s portrayal of Frederick Douglass. This site also includes quotes, speeches, and a short biography of Frederick Douglass.  
    http://www.frederickdouglass.org
    
    Extractions: The Frederick Douglass Seminars on Race Relations and Gender Equity provide young people with an experience to help them understand that they, like Frederick Douglass, may forge a portion of the American dream both for themselves and for others. Frederick Douglass' persona and his life are remarkable in almost every way. In the process of exploring the principles that empowered him to become a full citizen of America, student participants gain knowledge about the realities of American slavery and sex discrimination and understand that the freedoms we enjoy today were bought with a price. They learn that many peoplewhite and blackworked tirelessly, for decades, to bring about the emancipation of slaves and to give women the opportunity to gain political equality with men. Participants learn to understand the life of Frederick Douglass in the context of an American history that reveals why racism and discrimination still exist in this country. Programs today that address socio-economic inequities, affirmative action, equal opportunity, civil rights and human rights, are better understood when seen in the context of being solutions to historic American problems. Fremarjo Enterprises, Incorporated provides this program in the belief that once an educated person knows how and why a destructive condition exists, he or she is on the road to being able to remove that condition from his or her own life, and possibly from the lives of others.

52. Frederick Douglass - African American Historical Figure
    Short biography geared toward older readers.  
    http://www.brightmoments.com/blackhistory/nfdougla.html
    
    Extractions: Born into slavery, Frederick Douglass lived to become one of the most influential figures in African American history. As a young man and a slave in Maryland, Frederick Douglass was recognized as a bright young man by both blacks and whites. During his life as a slave in Baltimore he learned to read and write and passed his knowledge along to other blacks in Baltimore. Douglass is remembered as a great speaker. His speaking abilities were developed in the secret debating club called the East Baltimore Mental Improvement Society. He escaped from slavery to New Bedford, Massachusetts in 1838. There he discovered the newspaper of the leading white abolitionist William Lloyd Garrison, The Liberator. Douglass and Garrison soon impressed one another and would work together for social reform and the abolition of slavery. Because of his speaking ability, Douglass soon became the major drawing card at meetings of the abolitionist society. A deep melodious voice, grace and a flair for the dramatic would allow Douglass to mesmerize his listeners at the abolitionist meetings.

Transportation Search: Douglass, Frederick (1818-1895) Frederick Douglass Maryland Historical Society F ugitive slave, autobiographer, and masterful statesman, Frederick Douglass inspired a generation Americans to rise against slavery, then led an effort toward racial reconciliation. During his lifetime and since his death, statues, schools, and public buildings across the nation have risen bearing his name. He stands as a national icon more than a century after his death. Born in February 1818, on a plantation near Easton in Talbot County on the Eastern Shore , Frederick Augustus Washington Bailey's childhood was shaped by his family's love and the hard realities of slavery. Betsey Bailey, a maternal grandmother, cared for him until the age of six, when she was made to surrender Frederick to be trained in work. His mother, Harriet Bailey, could see him only occasionally (distance and her untimely death prohibited a closer relationship). Frederick's white owner is suspected to have been his father. Frederick Douglass Maryland Historical Society At eight years old Frederick was sent to Baltimore to serve the relatives of his Talbot County owner. Yet, in that city an entirely new world opened to him. Frederick came to appreciate black freedom and the possibilities of life beyond the plantation, for he witnessed both first hand as most of the
