CONTENTS The Life and Times of Frederick Douglass Collected Articles of Frederick Douglass, a Slave My Bondage and My Freedom The Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass Many Additional Assorted Writings and Speeches Frederick Douglass, born Frederick Augustus Washington Bailey, February 1818 - February 20, 1895, was an American social reformer, orator, writer and statesman. After escaping from slavery, he became a leader of the abolitionist movement, gaining note for his dazzling oratory and incisive antislavery writing. He stood as a living counter example to slaveholders' arguments that slaves did not have the intellectual capacity to function as independent American citizens. Many Northerners also found it hard to believe that such a great orator had been a slave. Douglass wrote several autobiographies, eloquently describing his life as a slave, and his struggles to be free.
