Bronze
The protection of Freedom of Speech in the First Amendment of the American Constitution made it possible for Frederick Douglass to publish newspapers and autobiographical books that pushed for the complete abolishment of slavery. The North Star Commons is named after his first newspaper.
It is highly advised to read the "The Life and Times of Frederick Douglass." It is his last autobiography that provides an excellent overview of his memories as an enslaved person in American, path to Freedom, his involvement in ending the Civil War and varied experiences of American politics.
He is heart felt eloquence makes him one of the great leaders of the American Freedom Movement.
Please support our initiative to continue Douglass' Legacy through education with the "Building Strong Children" statue project. With 500K, we will add bronze life-size statues of wife Anna Murray Douglass, living descendants Nettie Washington Douglass and Ken Morris Jr. and three children to the already made Rochester, NY Airport Bicentennial Frederick Douglass Bronze.
