Invisible man Douglass

shared by Ellen L on 01 Jan 12 - No Cached
  • Although Douglass worked within a particular framework -- his own people's liberation -- he saw himself as part of the working out of the American experience. ... His enduring legacy forces us to think anew about the centrality of this historic tension between identities of race and nation
  • "Douglass pointedly rejected the concept of the United States as a white or racially exclusive nation. He envisioned a broadly inclusive America which transcended narrow and divisive boundaries like race.
