Read the excerpt from Frederick Douglass's speech on
the emancipation of women.
(1) Woman does not ask man for the right of suffrage.
(2) That is something which man has no power to give.
(3) Rights do not have their source in the will or the
grace of man.... All that woman can properly ask man
to do in this case, and all that man can do, is to get out of
the way, to take his obstructive forces of fines and
imprisonment and his obstructive usages out of the way,
and let woman express her sentiments at the polls and
in the government, equally with himself. (4) Give her fair
play and let her alone.
