Frederick Douglass and Abraham Lincoln: Two Leaders

Directed by Anna Derryberry and Laura Anderson

With Aaron Goodson, Christopher Swindle, Robin Roberts, Kenneth B. Morris Jr. and Josh Stauffer

Abraham Lincoln is revered as America’s abolitionist president, but his thoughts about ending slavery were far from ideal. It would take the steady influence of the abolitionist movement and one of its leaders, Frederick Douglass, to guide Lincoln to becoming “The Great Emancipator”. Douglass was himself born enslaved and through the power of education became a giant that influenced American history.
