A little learning, indeed, may be a dangerous thing, but the lack of learning is a calamity to any people -
Frederick Douglass, 1817-1895
Frederick Douglass was an abolitionist, orator, author, and women’s rights advocate. A former slave, he rose to national prominence during the Civil War years, and was an outspoken supporter of the necessity of education to further the betterment of the human condition right up to the end of his life.
