On September 24, 1883, Frederick Douglass delivered a speech at the National Convention of Colored Men in Louisville, Kentucky. Douglass talked about the growing number of black democrats, throughout the South, that promoted the Democrat Party. During his speech Douglass said, No excuse or apology can be properly framed for men who, in any way, identify with us. Such men are either deficient in self-respect or too mean, servile, and cowardly to assert the true dignity of their manhood and of their race.
