Selectiоn C — Frederick Dоuglаss — Pаrt 4 оf 7The 4th of July is the first greаt fact in your nation’s history—the very ring--bolt in the chain of your yet undeveloped destiny . . . What, to the American slave, is your 4th of July? I answer: a day that reveals to him, more than all other days in the year, the gross injustice and cruelty to which he is the constant victim. To him, your celebration is a sham; your boasted liberty, an unholy license; your national greatness, swelling vanity; your sounds of rejoicing are empty and heartless; your denunciations of tyrants, brass fronted impudence; your shouts of liberty and equality, hollow mockery; your prayers and hymns, your sermons and thanksgivings, with all your religious parade, and solemnity, are, to him, mere bombast, fraud, deception, impiety, and hypocrisy—a thin veil to cover up crimes which would disgrace a nation of savages.

Selectiоn C — Frederick Dоuglаss — Pаrt 5 оf 7people of these United Stаtes, at this very hour. Go where you may, search where you will, roam through all the monarchies and despotisms of the old world, travel through South America, search out every abuse, and when you have found the last, lay your facts by the side of the every day practices of this nation, and you will say with me, that, for revolting barbarity and shameless hypocrisy, America reigns without a rival . . . Behold the practical operation of this internal slave--trade, the American slave--trade, sustained by American politics and American religion . . . Fellow--citizens, this murderous traffic is, to--day, in active operation in this boasted republic . . . I see the bleeding footsteps . . . on the way to the slave--markets, where the victims are to be sold like horses, sheep, and swine . . . My soul sickens at the sight . . . But a still more inhuman, disgraceful, and scandalous state of things remains to be presented.
