Debunking Ones Own Message: Vandalism of Frederick Douglass Statue

One of the Great Orators and Evangelists of Freedom of the 19th century. American History. A man even today we can all learn something from. A former slave, writer, diplomat. He like others of his time were the conscience of a nation. Where would "#BlackLives" be without the words and quality of #FrederickDouglass? Additionally, if "Black Lives" did not, has not mattered, then why did this nation tear itself apart over this very issue in the 1860's? The most devastating war in American history. One would think that the statue of Frederick Douglass would be sacrosanct. That fact it is not speaks volumes.
#BLM, #4thofJulySpeech, #TheCivilWar
