July 4th Oration: What to the Slave is the Fourth of July?


"What To The Slave Is the Fourth of July" is a Reader's Theater presentation of the political analysis of Frederick Douglass on the experiences of slavery and the hypocrisy of the principles espoused as the reason for celebrating the 4th in the historical present and post-racial context.

Reader's Theater will be followed with refreshments and conversation. Join us
for a rich, reflective July 4th experience!

Please bring your own chair.
