No. Researches and books have said he was actually an escaped slave who rebelled in the mid 1800s against slavery. He went to meeting of abolitionists, which are people who want to end slavery forever. He decided to give them a serious speech that has effected slavery before the civil war. Standing 6.25 ft tall straight, he spoke in a voice like thunder roaring. He described the cruel treatment of the slavery and mostly african american children in such a roaring voice that sounds intimidating enough to scare off a wild dog. People, then were said to cry in a very sad mood. When he made fun of ministers and slavery owners, people started to laugh very hard at the slavery owners. When he finished, William Llyod Garrison stood up and cried that slavery should not be in a christian land or anywhere else. The crowd was saying no no no many times in loud, begging voices. Federalist Douglass quickly became a leader of the abolitionist movement. His autobiography became an instand best seller of history in america. A brilliant, independent thinker, Douglass eventually started his own newspaper, North Star. It said" Right is no sex- Truth is of no color-God is the father of us all, and we are all Brethen."
