Frederick Douglass — Antique Historical Print

The Story in the Margin

Frederick Douglass escaped slavery to become the most powerful abolitionist orator of his age — and the most photographed American of the nineteenth century. He sat for the camera constantly and deliberately, using his own dignified image to argue, without a word, for the humanity and equality of Black Americans.
