“What have I, or those I represent, to do with your national independence? Are the great principles and of natural justice, embodied in that Declaration of Independence, extended to us?
The sunlight that brought light and healing to you has brought stripes and death to me. This fourth of July is yours, not mine. You may rejoice, I must mourn.
There is not a nation on the Earth guilty of practices more shocking and bloody than are the people of these United States at this very hour.”
– Frederick Douglass (Independence Day speech, Rochester, N.Y. 1852)
