Frederick Douglass and the Black liberation movement

"Frederick Douglass' leadership role in the anti-slavery struggle is well known. Even so, much about his life and his role in the black liberation movement is unknown. Wu Jin-Ping reevaluates Douglass' place in the history of the black liberation movement, paying particular attention to Douglass' impact on other black leaders, and to Douglass' Legitimate Reform Strategy."--BOOK JACKET.
