Abstract

By November 1863 Frederick Douglass' reputation as an orator, reformer, activist and social critic was well established. He was widely acknowledged as the spokesman of his race. Indeed, by 1863 he had become the voice for oppressed people everywhere. From 1841 to his death in 1895 this formerly unknown, self-educated slave earned the reputation as one of the most distinguished and celebrated leaders and speakers of the nineteenth century.
