in American history, we read a book called the life of Fredrick Douglas. i really like Fredrick Douglas because hes bacily saying "be who you want to be" because he was a slave from 12-21 and he knew that he was not ever going to be a free man so he escaped hard labor and ran into a free state. Fredrick Douglas was very smart because one of his masters wife tough him "the abcs". Fredrick Douglas just wanted everyone to have the same rights. that's why he protested for Women to have rights
