    Extractions: Boston is a great city, and Music Hall has a fame almost as extensive as that of Boston. Nowhere more than here have the principles of human freedom been expounded. But for the circumstances already mentioned, it would seem almost presumption for me to say anything here about those principles. And yet, even here, in Boston, the moral atmosphere is dark and heavy. The principles of human liberty, even I correctly apprehended, find but limited support in this hour a trial. The world moves slowly, and Boston is much like the world. We thought the principle of free speech was an accomplished fact. Here, if nowhere else, we thought the right of the people to assemble and to express their opinion was secure. Dr. Channing had defended the right, Mr. Garrison had practically asserted the right, and Theodore Parker had maintained it with steadiness and fidelity to the last. But here we are to-day contending for what we thought we gained years ago. The mortifying and disgraceful fact stares us in the face, that though Faneuil Hall and Bunker Hill Monument stand, freedom of speech is struck down. No lengthy detail of facts is needed. They are already notorious; far more so than will be wished ten years hence.

    Extractions: Frederick Douglass Frederick Douglass was born in slavery as Frederick Augustus Washington Bailey near Easton in Talbot County, Maryland. He was not sure of the exact year of his birth, but he knew that it was 1817 or 1818. As a young boy he was sent to Baltimore, to be a house servant, where he learned to read and write, with the assistance of his master's wife. In 1838 he escaped from slavery and went to New York City, where he married Anna Murray, a free African American woman whom he had met in Baltimore. Soon thereafter he changed his name to Frederick Douglass. In 1841 he addressed a convention of the Massachusetts Anti-Slavery Society in Nantucket and so greatly impressed the group that they immediately employed him as an agent. He was such an impressive orator that numerous persons doubted if he had ever been a slave, so he wrote Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass . During the Civil War he assisted in recruiting African Americans for the 54th and 55th Massachusetts Regiments and consistently argued for the emancipation of slaves. After the war he was active in securing and protecting the rights of the freemen. In his later years, at different times, he was secretary of the Santo Domingo Commission, marshall and recorder of deeds of the District of Columbia, and United States Minister to Haiti. His other autobiographical works are My Bondage and My Freedom and Life and Times of Frederick Douglass , published in 1855 and 1881 respectively. He died in 1895.

He was a slave in Maryland, working as a house servant and as a ship calker in Baltimore. A white Methodist minister showed him that God could be his father. "He thought that all men, great and small, bond and free, were sinners in the sight of God; that they were by nature rebels against his government; and that they must repent of their sins, and be reconciled to God through Christ."

    Extractions: Frederick Douglass was born in Tuckahoe, near Easton, Talbot county Maryland in 1817. He was born to Harriet Bailey. He never knew who his father was, but he knew his father was a white man. His given name at birth was Frederick Augustus Washington Bailey. As was common in the slave system, he was separated from his mother before he was a year old. He was brought up by his grandmother, Betsy Bailey, for the first six years of his life. These years were spent playing, hunting, fishing, and doing small chores. Douglass remembers on several occasions his mother walking the twelve mile distance from the farm she worked on to rock him to sleep. When he would wake up, she'd be gone. Hearing of her death was like hearing that a stranger had died. He was unmoved because the slave system proved effective in tearing up families. Douglass later declares that "there is not, beneath the sky, an enemy to filial affection so destructive as slavery. It had made my brothers and sisters strangers to me; it converted the mother that had bore me into a myth; it shrouded my father in mystery, and left me without an intelligible beginning in the world." He loved his grandmother very much but, he would soon be torn away from her too. At the age of six, Douglass was sent to his master, Aaron Anthony's, house. Anthony was the owner of three farms with the Lloyd Plantation being the largest. This is where Douglass was sent. The separation from his grandmother was very traumatic for the little boy. This was his first introduction to the cruelties and realities of the slave system. This became fundamental in "his understanding of the slavery system and his desire to run to freedom."

    Extractions: 24 X 36 inches "There is no negro problem. The problem is whether the american people have loyalty enough, honor enough, patriotism enough, to live up to their own constitution.." Frederick Douglass saw the Civil War as the inevitable consequence of man's inhumanity to man and a necessary conflagration to break the bonds of slavery. He saw immediately that if former slaves could fully participate in the fighting, they could not be denied full citizenship in the Republic. George Luther Turner, one of the original backers of John Brown, became a major in the Union Army. He immediately turned to Douglass to help recruit "Colored" ; Troops. The March issue of "Douglass Monthly" issued the well known challenge "Men of Color To Arms." Douglass recruited over one hundred free blacks from upstate New York for the Fifty-fourth Massachusetts. Among the recruits arriving at boot camp were two of Douglass' sons Lewis and Charles. Lewis, the older son, served as the first sergeant major of the 54th and he was in the thick of the fighting at Fort Wagner where 1515 Union troops were mowed down by a blistering barrage from the Confederate stronghold. Lewis marveled that he returned unharmed from the assault.

    Extractions: Library Frederick Douglass Dictionary Frederick Douglass was born the son of a slave, Harriet Bailey, and a plantation superintendent, Aaron Anthony, in February, 1818, in Tuckahoe, Maryland. Given the name Frederick Augustus Washington Bailey, he was raised by his grandparents after being separated from his mother. However, when Frederick was only six years old, his grandmother took him his master's plantation and left him there. At the age of eight, he was given the position of house boy, where he was taught to read, illegally, by Sophia Auld, the mistress of the house. In 1838, after several attempts and disguised as a sailor, Frederick escaped and fled to New York. The Underground Railroad helped Anna Murray, Frederick's love, escape. The two married and moved to Massachusetts. Frederick adopted the last name "Douglass." He soon became active in the budding abolitionist movement. A speech at the Massachusetts Anti-Slavery Society in 1841 saw the beginning of Douglass' career as a lecturer. His progressive views included being in favor of Irish Home Rule, women's suffrage, and free public education. In 1845, Douglass wrote his autobiography called Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, an American Slave

    Extractions: Useful Links : Portraits A great orator and writer, a leading figure in the abolitionsist movement, Frederick Douglass was born in or around 1817 into slavery in Maryland. He escaped in 1838. In 1841 he addressed an abolitionist meeting in Nantucket , recounting his life as a slave. This was followed by lectures throughout the East, with the publication in 1845 of The Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass: an American slave . The book revealed his master's identity and he took refuge in England where he was helped by sympathetic liberals to buy his freedom. Back in America he published the abolitionist North Star , the first of a series of journals he was to create. Increasingly, he came to reject Garrison's moralist stance against slavery in favour of political struggle and support of the Republican party, also championing the rights of women. During the Civil War he helped recruit black soldiers for the Union army, afterwards supporting Reconstruction and campaigning for Republican Presidents. Douglass wrote two other autobiographies
