According to Ronald Takaki, Frederick Douglass, a leading anti-slavery abolitionist who was born
into slavery,
was initially taught to read by the wife of the White man who held him in in bondage, who
supported his education throughout his life.
got a taste of freedom as a young man when he was hired out to work at the Baltimore
shipyards side by side with free Black/African Americans and European/White laborers.
consistently supported both violent resistance to slavery and Black-nationalist efforts
among African Americans to find greater freedom by leaving the U.S. and immigrating to
Africa.
