Concerns the emancipation debates between Frederick Douglass and Abraham Lincoln, at the height of the Civil War.
Seeking the following only:
Frederick Douglass:
AVAILABLE ROLE. African American man, mid 40s. Headstrong, spiritual, intelligent, well-spoken; has the courage of his convictions. Not afraid to go after what he knows he and others deserve. This is not the white-haired, full-bearded icon of his later years; though his hair has begun to grey, he has the fierceness of his middle years.
