Born into slavery in Maryland in 1818, Frederick Douglass was
determined to gain freedom--and once he realized that knowledge was
power, he secretly learned to read and write to give himself an
advantage. After escaping to the North in 1838, as a free man he
gave powerful speeches about his experience as a slave. He was so
impressive that he became a friend of President Abraham Lincoln, as
well as one of the most famous abolitionists of the nineteenth
century.
