6 The North Star

Chapter 6 The North Star The idea of being captured haunted Frederick. By law, he still belonged to the Aulds. After making sure that the money from his book sales would go directly to Anna, Frederick left the household in her capable hands and fled to England. There, and in Ireland and Scotland, he gave speeches in nearly all the large cities and towns, asking for help ending American slavery. Already famous in America, Frederick became well-known in Europe as well. Frederick was amazed to find that in England, blacks were treated the same as whites. Whether on a train or in a restaurant, hotel, or church, he was welcome without concern for his color. No one insulted him or threw him out, as they often did in America. He felt refreshed and, for the first time, truly free. It was tempting to move his family overseas, but Frederick felt he must go

被俘虏的想法一直困扰着弗雷德里克。 根据法律，他仍然属于奥尔兹。 在确保他的书的销售收入将直接交给安娜之后，弗雷德里克把这个家交给了能干的安娜，逃到了英国。 在那里，以及在爱尔兰和苏格兰，他在几乎所有的大城市和城镇发表演讲，请求帮助结束美国的奴隶制。 腓特烈在美国已经很有名了，他在欧洲也很有名。 弗雷德里克惊奇地发现，在英国，黑人和白人受到同样的待遇。 无论是在火车上，还是在餐馆、旅馆或教堂里，他都受到欢迎，而不关心他的肤色。 没有人像在美国那样侮辱他或把他赶出去。 他感到神清气爽，第一次感到真正的自由。 把家搬到海外很有诱惑力，但弗雷德里克觉得他必须去

home. How else could he help the millions still enslaved? Then a group of his English friends did something remarkable. They raised money to buy Frederick's freedom from the Aulds. And the Aulds agreed. In exchange for 150 British pounds, or about $700, Hugh Auld signed papers freeing Frederick forever. Freedom! Now Frederick could devote himself fully to his life's work of ending slavery. After twenty-one months abroad, Frederick returned to America with plans of starting his own

首页。否则他怎么能帮助数百万仍被奴役的人呢？ 然后，他的一群英国朋友做了一件了不起的事。 他们筹钱把弗雷德里克从奥尔兹手中赎身。 奥尔兹同意了。为了换取150英镑，也就是大约100英镑，休·奥尔德签署了永久释放弗雷德里克的文件。 自由!现在腓特烈可以全身心地投入到结束奴隶制的事业中去了。 在国外呆了21个月后，弗雷德里克回到美国，打算自己创业

antislavery newspaper. He moved his family to Rochester, New York, where there was a strong abolitionist community. Frederick published the first issue of his paper, The North Star, in 1847. The paper, named after the star that guided runaway slaves to freedom, published accounts of escaped slaves and

反对奴隶制度的报纸。他把家搬到了纽约州的罗切斯特，那里有一个强大的废奴主义者社区。 1847年，弗雷德里克发表了他的第一期论文《北极星》。 这份以指引逃亡奴隶走向自由的星星命名的报纸，刊登了逃亡奴隶和

news about successful free blacks. It printed stories and poems by black writers. It spoke out against the poor treatment of blacks in the North. The North Star made Frederick a true leader of his people. In 1851, he would rename the publication Frederick Douglass' Paper. In his newspaper and in his talks, Frederick also spoke up for women's rights. Women could not vote. In most states they could not own property. The few jobs open to them did not pay well. Women were expected to marry, keep house, and raise children while their husbands handled outside affairs. In 1848, America's first Woman's Rights Convention was held in Seneca Falls, New York. Frederick attended the event and supported it in The North Star.

关于成功的自由黑人的新闻。 它出版黑人作家的小说和诗歌。 它公开反对北方对黑人的恶劣待遇。 北极星使腓特烈成为他的人民的真正领袖。 1851年，他将《弗雷德里克·道格拉斯论文》更名为《弗雷德里克·道格拉斯论文》。 在他的报纸和演讲中，弗雷德里克也为妇女的权利大声疾呼。 妇女不能投票。在大多数州，他们不能拥有财产。 为数不多的几份工作给他们提供的报酬并不高。 妇女被期望结婚、持家、抚养孩子，而她们的丈夫处理外部事务。 1848年，美国第一次妇女权利大会在纽约的塞内卡瀑布举行。 弗雷德里克参加了这次活动，并在《北极星报》上表示支持。

A MIGHTY TEAM: SUSAN B. ANTHONY AND ELIZABETH CADY STANTON SUSAN B. ANTHONY AND ELIZABETH CADY STANTON WERE COURAGEOUS, DETERMINED REFORMERS WHO WORKED FOR EQUAL RIGHTS FOR WOMEN. THEY WERE ALSO ACTIVE IN THE ABOLITIONIST MOVEMENT. ANTHONY AND STANTON MET AND BEGAN WORKING TOGETHER IN 1851. IN 1869, THEY FORMED THE NATIONAL WOMAN SUFFRAGE ASSOCIATION TO FOCUS ON WOMEN'S RIGHT TO VOTE. STANTON DRAFTED A VOTING-RIGHTS AMENDMENT TO THE CONSTITUTION THAT WAS FIRST INTRODUCED IN 1878. UNFORTUNATELY, THE AMENDMENT WAS NOT ADOPTED UNTIL 1920, BY WHICH TIME BOTH WOMEN HAD DIED.

一个强大的团队：苏珊b .安东尼和伊丽莎白卡迪斯坦顿苏珊b。 安东尼·卡迪·斯坦顿和伊丽莎白·卡迪·斯坦顿是勇敢而坚定的改革者，他们为妇女争取平等权利。 他们也积极参与废奴运动。 安东尼和斯坦顿在1851年相遇并开始一起工作。 1869年，她们成立了全国妇女选举权协会，致力于争取妇女的投票权。 斯坦顿为1878年首次提出的宪法起草了投票权修正案。 不幸的是，修正案直到1920年才被通过，那时两位妇女都已去世。
