Frederick Douglass, Hillsdale College
Ladies Literary Union, January 21, 1863
Spoke of popular error, of unpopular Truth
The former, new & old, the later, ageless
Constitution enacted for Citizens regardless
Trust in the operation of Saving Principles
The burden of our demand shall be Justice
Therefore repudiated all insidious distinctions
Race pride a positive evil, a false foundation
Enemies deepen who widen skin tone types
The Individual the only American minority
No rights of race superior to Human Rights
