Frederick Douglass: In Five Speeches

★ 4.6/10•2022•58m•16•Documentary•History

Revolution starts with a voice.

Acclaimed actors draw from five of Douglass’ legendary speeches, to represent a different moment in the tumultuous history of 19th century America as well as a different stage of Douglass’ long and celebrated life, while famed scholars provide context for the speeches, and remind us that Frederick Douglass’ words about racial injustice still resonate deeply today.
