For those who missed our September 14 discussion--or would like to continue the conversation! For more about this powerful book, go to https://evanston.libnet.info/event/4458746.
Frederick Douglass (1818-1895) escaped from his slave masters in Maryland to become over time a leader of the abolitionist movement. He was renowned for his eloquence and unflinching courage and honesty. This is the first of three autobiographies he wrote during his life. Since our access to physical library books is still problematic, we will be basing our discussion on the Duke Classics ebook edition available from most public libraries on the Libby platform. We invite anyone anywhere to join in this discussion--not just our regular members. Please just register first so that we can send you information on how to connect to the Zoom meeting! We will probably have to password protect attendance, and this information will be shared only with registered participants.
