Kenneth B. Morris, Jr. and Jeffrey Thomas
On Monday, September 17th, Kenneth B. Morris, Jr. spoke to a full house at The Walden Woods Project about “abolition from the days of Thoreau and Douglass to the present.” Morris is Co-Founder and President of Frederick Douglass Family Initiatives (FDFI), and is great-great-great grandson to Frederick Douglass and great-great grandson to Booker T. Washington. The event was co-sponsored by The Robbins House and raised money to donate 72 copies of FDFI’s special bicentennial edition of Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass: An American Slave to a local school.
