Description: When the federal government of the United States passed the infamous Fugitive Slave Act as part of the Compromise of 1850, black abolitionist Martin Delany broke decisively with the mainstream anti-slavery movement by declaring that the country was racist beyond redemption and that African-Americans should emigrate to overseas en masse. In this video, we dive deep into Delany's manifesto and examine how his beliefs and activism changed over the course of his long and dynamic life.nnThanks to@F
