Fraedmans Declaration of Independence Rally at Hilldale
An 1875 report covers a July 6 gathering near Washington City celebrating Independence with two prominent black orators, Langston and Douglass. They criticized white guardians of Black education and urged independence, self-reliance, and political power, while denouncing Congregationalists and Republican elites. The piece also notes other July 4 observances and a memorial to General Blair, plus a chaotic Charleston bankruptcy hearing and a St Pauls election report.
