Frederick Douglass, on English platform, denouncing slaveholders and their religious abettors. Douglass spent two years in Ireland and Great Britain, where he gave many lectures in churches and chapels (1845-47). Frederick Douglass (February 1818 - February 20, 1895) was an American social reformer, orator, writer and statesman. After escaping from slavery, he became a leader of the abolitionist movement, gaining note for his oratory and incisive antislavery writing. He stood as a living counter-example to slaveholders' arguments that slaves did not have the intellectual capacity to function as independent American citizens. The Uncle Tom's Cabin Almanck, Or, Abolitionist Memento, 1852 (cropped and cleaned).
