i admire Frederick Douglass because he was a great person, very smart, very convincing and he only does whats right for people. if Frederick Douglass wasn't born slavery will still be going on and maybe the civil war would've been lost and the south would win. He also informed white people about the realities of slavery. The toucher and rudeness the black people were given was awful...
