Douglass Argument--"What to the Slave is the Fourth of July?"

1. Douglass spends considerable time telling his audience what points do not need to be argued: that a slave is a human, that man is entitled to liberty, and so on. If in fact these points are agreed on by all, why do you think Douglass spends so much time talking about them?

Post a 1-2 paragraph response by the beginning of class time on Friday, and also comment on one peer's posting.
