PSU's The Frederick Douglass Project with Keith David
Emmy Award-winning actor Keith David channeled Douglass in a speech delivered at the National Convention of Colored Men in Louisville, Kentucky, on Sept. 24, 1883. The convention, almost 20 years after the end of the Civil War, was controversial. White and Black leaders debated its necessity, optics and the chance of vote interference. Douglass’ speech defined the need for the convention by explaining the urgency for Black communities to secure full voting rights, fair and equal treatment, and the demand to be considered American.
