Black Excellence In World History Subject Document Submitted by: Student, Mira Costa Community College Go to: Home Page , or use the " Back " button your browser for previous page. Frederick Douglass was born a slave in 1817, but he escaped to freedom in 1838. He worked for a while as a caulker but later joined the antislavery movement. Douglass was an excellent speaker. His audiences were amazed at how well he spoke. It led some of his critics to wonder if he had ever been a slave. To prove that he had, Douglass wrote his autobiography, the Life and Times of Frederick Douglass, in which he chronicled his life from the eastern shores of Maryland to his escape and his life in freedom. That ended the rumors Douglass was an outspoken leader in the fight against slavery and later against racism and prejudice. During his life he was a newspaper publisher, writer, lecturer, adviser to presidents, husband, and father. He advocated the rights of women and fought against the ill treatment of other minorities in the United States. Frederick Douglass had spent all his adult life fighting for freedom and justice in America for all people, men and women. It seemed fitting to many that this man should be honored with a presidential appointment. Amid controversy and criticism from blacks and whites, Douglass accepted President Hayes's appointment as marshal of the District of Columbia. Douglass went on to serve in other governmental posts, including minister and consul general to Haiti.

HOME Trivia Games FolkTales BIOGRAPHIES ... Feedback YOUR INTERNET RESOURCE FOR AFRICAN-AMERICAN HISTORY FREDERICK DOUGLASS Frederick Douglass was born into slavery in 1817, in Tuckahoe, Maryland. Because his slave mother, Harriet Bailey, used to call him her "little valentine," he adopted February 14th as his birthday, not knowing the exact date of his birth. He knew very little about his mother since she was employed as a field hand on a plantation some twelve miles away, and she died when he was eight or nine years old. Douglass knew even less about his father, but it was rumored that he was the son of his White slave master, Aaron Anthony. Young Frederick was grossly mistreated. To keep from starving, on many occasions, he competed with his master's dogs for table scraps and bones. In 1825, he was sent to serve as a houseboy in the home of Hugh and Sophia Auld in Baltimore. Mrs Auld grew fond of him and sought to teach him to read and write. By the time her irate husband discovered the deed and put a stop to it, Douglass had acquired enough of the rudiments to carry on by himself. His life in Baltimore was interrupted in 1832 at the death of Captain Anthony. Frederick was passed along to the possession of Thomas Auld, Anthony's son-in-law. The lessons he learned about the evils of slavery and his hatred of the institution was deepened during his stay with Thomas Auld. He infuriated the Auld's by his refusal to call his owner "Master" instead of "Captain."

Like many slaves, he is unsure of his exact date of birth. Douglass is separated from his mother, Harriet Bailey , soon after he is born. His father is most likely their white master, Captain Anthony . Captain Anthony is the clerk of a rich man named Colonel Lloyd . Lloyd owns hundreds of slaves, who call his large, central plantation the “Great House Farm.” Life on any of Lloyd’s plantations, like that on many Southern plantations, is brutal. Slaves are overworked and exhausted, receive little food, few articles of clothing, and no beds. Those who break rules—and even those who do not—are beaten or whipped, and sometimes even shot by the plantation overseers, the cruelest of which are Mr. Severe and Mr. Austin Gore. Douglass’s life on this plantation is not as hard as that of most of the other slaves. Being a child, he serves in the household instead of in the fields. At the age of seven, he is given to Captain Anthony’s son‑in‑law’s brother

The Life of Frederick Douglass [Chronology] Frederick Douglass was born into slavery on the Eastern Shore of Maryland in 1818, and was given the name Frederick Augustus Washington Bailey (Baly), after his mother Harriet Bailey. During the course of his remarkable life he escaped from slavery, became internationally renowned for his eloquence in the cause of liberty, and went on to serve the national government in several official capacities. Through his work he came into contact with many of the leaders of his times. His early work in the cause of freedom brought him into contact with a wide array of abolitionists and social reformers, including William Lloyd Garrison, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, John Brown, Gerrit Smith and many others. As a major Stationmaster on the Underground Railroad he directly helped hundreds on their way to freedom through his adopted home city of Rochester, NY. Renowned for his eloquence, he lectured throughout the US and England on the brutality and immorality of slavery. As a publisher his North Star and Frederick Douglass' Paper brought news of the anti-slavery movement to thousands. Forced to leave the country to avoid arrest after John Brown's raid on Harpers Ferry, he returned to become a staunch advocate of the Union cause. He helped recruit African American troops for the Union Army, and his personal relationship with Lincoln helped persuade the President to make emancipation a cause of the Civil War. Two of Douglass' sons served in the 54th Massachusetts Regiment, which was made up entirely of African American volunteers. The storming of Fort Wagner by this regiment was dramatically portrayed in the film

It is just as criminal to rob a man of his right to speak and hear as it would be to rob him of his money" Frederick Douglass "A Plea for Free Speech" Boston, Mass., 1860 The words of this 19th century visionary are prophetic and profound. It is the genius and courage of Frederick Douglass that has inspired us to launch the NorthStar Network. We are moved by the challenge of continuing the great tradition of journalism and advocacy championed by Douglass in his pioneering abolitionist newspaper, The North Star Frederick Douglass was born into slavery as Frederick Augustus Bailey in February of 1817 in Talbot County, Maryland. He was raised on the plantation of Colonel Edward Lloyd. At the age of seven Douglass was sent to the Baltimore home of relatives of his master, Thomas Auld. His psychological break from slavery came when he stood down a notorious "slave breaker," Edward Covey, during a fight. In one of his autobiographies Douglass cited the Covey incident as a turning point in his life. He escaped to the North in 1838 and became an articulate spokesperson for the emancipation of Blacks. While living in New Bedford, Massachusetts he adopted Douglass as his surname. In 1845 he published his
