⏲️ I am counting down the days to the publication of this new book: "Until the Last Yoke Is Broken: The Constitutional Vision of Frederick Douglass," coming soon from @Harvard_Press.
✍️🏽 Written by constitutional historian and political philosopher @RebeiroBradley@BYULaw, this book reveals how Frederick Douglass believed the Constitution should be interpreted. For Douglass, "the interpreter must adopt whatever meaning best comports with the natural rights affirmed in the Declaration of Independence." Fascinating and important.
📅 Four months to go until publication!
