Frederick Douglass Live

MANY THANKS to the Surry County Historical Society for sponsoring the recent historical interpretation featuring Gen. Ulysses S. Grant and Frederick Douglass.
It was an amazing conversation between Grant and Douglass about their early lives, the American Civil War and their collaborations during Grant’s presidency and Reconstruction. The questions from the audience of more than 70 were insightful and generated a lively conversation. Additional thanks to the members of the Hampton Roads Civil War Round Table who came.
