Fredrick Douglass Poem by Michelle Cook

Fredrick Douglass



we had to write a poem from the point of view of Fredrick Douglass:

i have the potential
to be intelligent
i can go far in life
the words of his wife
yet, spoken with a deep fear
'makin smart niggers
would be pullin the trigger
on my career'

- Michelle Cook
