Along with Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Susan B. Anthony, he founded the American Equal Rights Association and helped pave the way for voting equity. So it is fitting that we honor the day, the women, and a few good men with a get-together with Douglass. He will appear in full 19th-century costume, portrayed by Nathan Richardson. Mr. Richardson is a Douglass historian, a published author, and a performance poet. His script was written more than a century ago by Douglass and the way he delivers it is powerful and moving. The event is planned for 7 pm on August 26 and all League members are invited. Please put it on your calendar now!
