Quelques mots sur l'auteur
Frederick Douglass (1818-1895) grew up as a slave on a plantation in Maryland before his escape along the Underground Railroad to NewYork City. From that time on, he committed his life to supporting the abolitionist cause. By 1845 he had attained a degree of notoriety as an abolitionist and he published his famous autobiography, The Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, an American Slave. After the Civil War, he continued to campaign for racial equality and towards the end of his life he became the first African American to ever receive a nomination for the presidency.
