Frederick Douglass refered to the first time he saw a slave being whipped as “the entrance to the hell of slavery.”

Frederick Douglass was an American social reformer, abolitionist, orator, writer, and statesman. He managed to escape from slavery in Maryland, and consequently, he became a national leader of the abolitionist movement in Massachusetts and New York. Douglass wrote several autobiographies.
