2018 is the Bicentennial of Frederick Douglass' Birth
2018 marks two hundred years since the birth of famed author, orator, abolitionist, and statesman Frederick Douglass in February 1818. The National Park Service is celebrating the occasion with a party on February 17th and 18th from 10 am to 4 pm at Douglass' home in Anacostia.
Washington DC is more than the nation's capital. We often focus on local Washington DC because:
1. "Regular" people also live here.
2. It's a really cool place to live.
3. Washington DC is more than monuments, Congress and the President, it's our hometown.
