Zusammenfassung:
Frederick Douglass, Republican explains how Douglass understood what it means to be free, and, more importantly, what it means to become free. Douglass was both a Republican in his party affiliation and a republican in his political philosophy. This book looks specifically at the geopolitical, constitutional, economic, and moral conditions that he believed to be necessary for individuals and nations to experience liberty in its fullest dimensions. These insights are vital to recover, as so much of Douglass's vision for emancipating Americans from the conditions of domination that the slave system created remains unfulfilled today.
