Summary:
Set in 1872, Ohio, where Frederick Douglass is on a national tour. The pastor introduces him to his integrated church. Douglass then gives an electrifying sermon on his breathtaking journey from slavery to author, newspaper editor, and leading American statesman. One of our greatest heroes, Douglass had many triumphs, including helping pass Amendments to the US Constitution. He reveals his life in the North, in London, and as a Christian leader, with wit and wisdom. He could have lived in Europe but felt God's call to return to America to win freedom for all. There was no turning back.
