- Authors
Fagan, Benjamin
- Abstract
The article discusses the collective effort to edit and produce the periodical "Frederick Douglass' Paper" when the paper's founder and editor, African American journalist and abolitionist Frederick Douglass, sought temporary asylum in Great Britain in the wake of John Brown's raid on Harpers Ferry in October 1859. The article also examines the collective nature of the broader Black press in the U.S. in the mid-19th century.
