Which abolitionist and writer escaped slavery and authored The Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass and founded The North Star?
Correct Answer:
Frederick Douglass
Explanation:
Frederick Douglass is the figure described. He escaped slavery in Maryland and became a leading abolitionist and writer. His Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, an American Slave, published in 1845, vividly details his experiences and how literacy became a path to freedom. He also founded The North Star, a abolitionist newspaper started in 1847 to advocate for emancipation and equal rights. While other key abolitionists—Sojourner Truth, Harriet Tubman, and William Lloyd Garrison—made significant contributions, none of them both wrote that specific narrative and started that particular publication.
