Frederick Douglass
Frederick Augustus Washington Bailey, nado en Cordova, Maryland, en febreiro de 1817 ou 1818[1][2][3][4] e finado en Washington, D.C., o 20 de febreiro de 1895 foi un reformador social, abolicionista, orador, escritor e estadista estadounidense coñecido como Frederick Douglass. Converteuse no máis importante líder afroamericano polos dereitos civís do século XIX.
Traxectoria
[editar | editar a fonte]Tras escapar da escravitude en Maryland en 1838, Douglass converteuse no líder nacional do movemento abolicionista en Massachusetts e Nova York e gañou sona pola súa oratoria[5] e polos seus incisivos escritos antiescravistas. Ademais, foi descrito durante a súa vida como un contraexemplo vivente das afirmacións dos escravistas de que que os escravos carecían de capacidade intelectual suficiente para ser cidadáns estadounidenses.[6] Os norteños da época atopaban difícil de crer que tan bo orador fose antes un escravo. Como resposta a isto, Douglass escribiu a súa primeira autobiografía.[7]
Douglass escribiu tres autobiografías, describindo a súa experiencia como escravo en Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, an American Slave (1845), que foi un éxito de vendas e foi influente na promoción da causa da abolición, igual que o seu segundo libro, My Bondage and My Freedom (1855). Trala guerra civil estadounidense, Douglass mantívose activo en prol dos dereitos dos escravos liberados e escribiu a súa última autobiografía, Life and Times of Frederick Douglass. Douglass apoiou tamén activamente o sufraxio feminino e ocupou varios cargos públicos. Sen o seu consentimento, Douglass foi o primeiro afroamericano nomeado para a vicepresidencia dos Estados Unidos, como dupla electoral de Victoria Woodhull polo Equal Rights Party.[8]
