About this event

An icon of American history, Frederick Douglass (1818-1895) was an abolitionist, journalist, and reformer. His words and brave actions continue to shape the ways that we think about race, democracy, and the meaning of freedom. Formerly an enslaved man, Douglass advocated for the abolition of slavery, racial equality, and the right of women to vote. When he wasn't traveling, Douglass resided at his mansion, Cedar Hill, in Anacostia, DC. Enjoy a virtual tour of his home, now restored to its 1895 appearance and containing original objects. Learn about his life and historic items on view in his home. Our presenter will be Park Ranger Kevin Bryant.
