“Ten years before the Civil War, the city of Rochester, N.Y., asked Frederick Douglass to speak for its July 4, 1852, celebration. He accepted, but rather than join in the “celebration,” Douglass took it in an unexpected direction. Here, Danny Glover performs a brilliant retelling of that speech.”

Every high school student should have to read and analyze Douglass’s speech. I barely even heard of him when I was in school.
