Frederick Douglass daguerretype in collection of Chicago Art Institute
John Fredrich, candidate for member, Palo Alto City Council and a retired Gunn High School of Palo Alto social studies teacher, suggests that rather than thinking of Andrew Goodman the martyred “outside agitator” when Bill Johnson real estate investor and real estate rag publisher calls me “The Agitator”, that rather I should recall Frederick Douglass, the antislavery activist.
John Fredrich Douglass sounds like a project.
Thanks, John. Thank you Mr. Douglass.
