Samenvatting:

Written to honour the life of the eponymous abolitionist and activist, 'John Brown' is the transcript of a speech delivered by Douglass in 1860.

While some saw Brown as a radical and a criminal, Douglass saw his friend as a man prepared to sacrifice his life so that others might be free.

Passionate and powerful, the speech not only extolls Brown's virtues, but also highlights the political and social issues faced by African Americans at the time.

´John Brown´ is an important read for anyone with an interest in social justice and injustice.
