When Abraham Lincoln was assassinated, Frederick      107

Douglass, in his mid-forties, was America’s most influential  

black citizen. For the rest of his long life, he continued in his  

speeches and writings to be a powerful voice for social  

justice, denouncing racism and demanding equal rights for

blacks and whites alike. During the Reconstruction era of

the 1870s and 1880s, when many of the rights gained after  

emancipation were snatched away in the South, Douglass

spoke out against lynchings, the terrorism of the Ku Klux

Klan, and the Jim Crow laws that were devised to keep

blacks in their place and away from the ballot box.
