The narrative chronicles the life of Frederick Douglass, who was born into slavery in Maryland but learned to read and write as a young boy in Baltimore. After escaping to New York City in 1838, he married Anna Murray and adopted his new name. Douglass became a powerful orator and advocate for abolition, captivating audiences at the Massachusetts Anti-Slavery Society. His compelling speeches led skeptics to question his past, prompting him to write his autobiography to share his experiences as a former slave.
