Frederick Douglass Foundation leadership are Republican campaign contributors

According to public records, the leadership of the ‘Frederick Douglass Foundation’ are Republican campaign contributors.

By Lynda Carson - October, 2025

According to an article in the Smithsonian Magazine, Frederick Douglass (1818-1895) once said: “I would unite with anybody to do right and with nobody to do wrong.”

Considering what the convicted felon President Donald J. Trump and the Republicans have been up to with their efforts to oppress the voters, and the Republican’s redistricting efforts, the oppression of women’s rights, and their draconian efforts to stifle free speech, I wonder what Frederick Douglass might think about the ‘Frederick Douglass Foundation’ if he were still around?

Or what Frederick Douglass might think about the convicted felon President Trump’s vicious attacks on the National Museum of African American History & Culture?

Or what Frederick Douglass might think about the leaders of the Young Republican groups throughout the country?

According to public records, the leadership of the ‘Frederick Douglass Foundation’ are Republican campaign contributors. See a few links below…
