Abraham and Frederick at the Library

Join us at 7PM on Thursday April 23 for “Abraham and Frederick: The Lincoln and “Other” Douglass Debate”, a living history presentation from the Civil War Museum of Philadelphia, and sponsored by the Pennsylvania Humanities Council, a Federal-State partner of the National Endowment for the Humanities. I really think this will be interesting, as two actors will portray President Lincoln and the abolitionist Frederick Douglass as they journey from mutual incomprehension to mutual respect. This program is one in our series celebrating the Lincoln Bicentennial in 2009.
