Frederick Douglass

"His life is so expansive and it really does reflect this incredible roller coaster of race in America and of so much change, how much the country changes - for the good and for the worse - between the 1840s and 1900.” Tour Guide Tell All celebrates Juneteenth with a look at the life and times of Frederick Douglass and the significance of his legacy today. Join us as we discuss Juneteenth, Frederick Douglass, the Civil War, and Reconstruction as well as how we honor Douglass' legacy today in our nation's capital. --------- We planned and recorded this episode in mid-May.
