Douglass (born Frederick Augustus Washington
Bailey, c. February 1818 – February 20, 1895) was an
African-American social reformer, abolitionist, orator, writer,
and statesman. After escaping from slavery in
Maryland, he became a national leader of the abolitionist movement
from Massachusetts and New York, gaining note for his dazzling
oratory and incisive antislavery writings. In his time he was
described by abolitionists as a living counter-example to
slaveholders' arguments that slaves lacked the intellectual capacity
to function as independent American citizens. Even many Northerners
at the time found it hard to believe that such a great orator had
once been a slave...

was a firm believer in the equality of all peoples,
whether black, female, Native American, or
recentimmigrant. He was also a believer in dialogue and in making
alliances across racial and ideological divides, and in the liberal
values of the American Constitution. When radical abolitionists under
the motto "No Union With Slaveholders", criticized
Douglass' willingness to dialogue with slave owners, he famously
replied: "I would unite with anybody to do right and with nobody
to do wrong."
