Frederick Douglass, a world-renowned author, orator, and activist, had a major impact on Scotland. His lifelong mission was to “tell the story of the slave” and when he fled to the UK after exposing his slaveholder’s name and deeds, he fell in love with Scotland—and the Scots fell in love with him. At the time the Scots saw Douglass as an icon of the freedom struggle; it’s only now that Scotland finally acknowledges this.
