I did my blog on Frederick Douglass. Frederick Douglass was born on Febuary 14th,1817.(Fredrick made that his brithdate.) He was born in the town of Maryland. His Mother was Harriet Bailey. his Mother was a slave so Frederick was taken away from her at a small age.
Fredericks Master was a very genereous woman and taught fredrick to read and write but she was strict about rules. Soon after Fredericks Masters hus band did not like it so he stopped learning and taught himself.Later did not like the fact of being owned so he wanted to be free so he ran away and was never caught.
In 1838 frederick married a free slave named Anna Murray. In 1841 fredrick gave a speech about freeing the slaves which gave him the passion to convince white people to set people free.In the 1850s Frederick met Abraham Lincoln in the White House two times.Over the years Abraham has qurrals with frederick but still they where friend.Frederick Douglass died at Abrahams second inaugural. He was a good man who tried to stop slavery thats why I like him.
