Thank you so much this really helped me with my fredrick Douglass timeline
Comment from : @lakishaprewitt1211

Im so glad Anna was talked about Without her, there was no FrederickbrBlack women need to be talked about more - and not just in terms of fighting against slavery But for their skills and talents that are not talked about enough
Comment from : @heyysimone

Frederick Douglass is my favorite civil rights activist and no one comes close
Comment from : @chrisconnor8086

Thank you so much for mentioning Anna I’ve read a few of his books and felt like he didn’t speak enough about her Black women have always stood in the gap

Thank you for sharing Sad in many ways to hear these facts Joyful in more ways because the real true facts about people like Fredrick Douglas, Harriet Tubman, Ida Wells and many more are enlightening to the reality of change and progression through the years Of which continues to this day Thanks again
Comment from : @jarhead4801

Fredrick Douglas was really big in my hometown (Rochester, NY) he's painted on walls, has a statue, and more informational stuff about his life on a trail and scattered around town He's even buried in the cemetery there
Comment from : @aunnahr8833

Thank you for this My kids are homeschooled and I like to supplement their history lessons with videos They really didn’t spend enough time on this man, so we are 💗

Thank you

Library of America issued a new volume of "Speeches & Writings" by Frederick Douglass It is excellent reading I highly recommend it and the companion volume of his "Autobiographies" Library of America will probably issue both volumes as a boxed set Buy both apart or as a boxed set!

Hi Braderick
Comment from : @emiliozh

Founding Father Freddy D I like the sound of that
Comment from : @StudioNama

Loved this! Douglass’s writing and other slave narratives are amazing works of writing that are so exceptional with their literary, historical, and political confluences Would love to see a crash course literature series focused on them
Comment from : @josephhegeman9003

Absolutely fascinating What a remarkable man! I am not Amerian but this makes me interested in American history
Comment from : @pmnoble4959

One of the mistakes that many black people and native people made was to accept the religion of the white oppressor To this day black and brown folk are still colonized until they realize that christianity was only just a tool for whites to enslave others and keep them under their boot

Comment from : @madwiesel3466

Thank you for doing this Crash Course series As a Canadian our schooling only touches on this history a little, too little Things didn't play out exactly the same here but the connections to what did happen here and why are clearer with the bigger picture
Comment from : @tiffanycarlyle4908

My Favourite American Orator and Author!
Comment from : @noahlogue3807

I can't stress enough how impactful this series is in my understanding of history that I was never taught
Comment from : @comik300

Perhaps he should be considered a founding father Perhaps there are many others as well, in the sense of the nation being an ongoing project that did not simply appear in a perfect form on the first day As long as the mantle remains reserved for persons that are no longer living, lest it be reduced to a political tool
Comment from : @bluehatguy4279

I had to do a biography project in the 4th grade and I got assigned Frederick Douglass I didn't know who he was and neither did anyone in my family (which looking back is a shame), so I read his biography and most other books on him to get prepared He was one of the most influential people I had heard of at that point in my life and changed a lot of how I viewed history He made me want to learn more and now I'm a college graduate with a history degree I'm so glad I got to learn of his life and I hope this video allows others to have a similar experience to me
Comment from : @DWViking4

Well Done 👏🏿
Comment from : @MonDieuMaCauseMonEpee

Frederick Douglass, founding father, indeed
Comment from : @eustatic3832

I just bought a copy of Douglass's book My public schooling never even mentioned him, and I didn't learn of him until well into my college years Truly a remarkable man
Comment from : @evilkatos

Douglass is interesting both in terms of how radical and how pragmatic he was

Comment from : @smartypants1980

I remember reading Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass as a senior in high school It wasn't for class I didn't understand every part because in my conservative school, they didn't teach us the full story of enslavement The book opened my eyes to the true horror of slavery Helped me become more of an anti-racist
Comment from : @TheTennesseeGeek

I read his, "narrative of the life of Fredrick Douglas" for my school work last year! It was very moving, and very graphic at times, but a very beautiful story
