What to the Slave Is the Fourth of July?
מאת Frederick Douglass
Douglass's 1852 speech -- one of the greatest pieces of American oratory ever delivered. Standing before an audience of abolitionists, he dismantles the hypocrisy of celebrating American freedom while four million people remain enslaved. As precise, furious, and relevant as anything ever written about the American contradiction.
