LftS: The Meaning of July Fourth for the Negro

7/3/2018

​It's the day before the 4th and every year its time to re-evaluate what this year's celebrations mean.  Taking a look back at Frederick Douglass's 1852 speech "The Meaning of July Fourth for the Negro," we simply ask the question: Have things changed?  This is not a question we seek to answer during this show, we simply provide the lecture to be digested, and ask the question.  Getting together for the holidays is significant and we should enjoy any opportunity to enjoy each other.  But we should also take those opportunities to have real discussions about what is going on in our families and in our larger communities.  Has America changed, or is it the same America Frederick Douglass blasted over 150 years ago?  What do you think?
