The struggle for freedom proclaimed by a government, promised by all and lived by few.

Through this timeline straight, the most atrocious crimes by our human facts have shaped our memory, if at first simply made do as a people, what point it changes and end up as some other owners?; Certainly the independence of the United States of America is reflected only some of the most horrendous attitudes of a people: discrimination and corruption; From the view from their perspective is English under a subsequent fight for independence, new purposes and create rules that lead to a better life from this place unfortunately blinded by power and concentration of thought, ideals and wealth that these rules do not permit covering all, only through this hierarchy unleash the courage of mitigated search of freedom.

The United States and tired of being subjected to the British decide to revolt and fight for their sovereignty, a reaction that leads to self-identify as a nation and consistently given by the origin of the Declaration of Independence, mainly wanted to make clear above all individual freedom of man in any case, and others such as freedom of press, religion, expression and so on. However, this apparent reality only comes to seem a utopia, if the definition could be that everyone was equal, paradoxically residents now slaves of this nation were not part of it, hypocritically proclaiming freedom that breathes life while at home they ownedhuman beings.

The exasperation of the contradiction between the actions and the statutes fail to produce the anger necessary to act with courage to reality, as Frederick D. a person who did not know his age because there was no birth records for people of color, who was removed from his mother into the care of the oldest woman of the plantation as usual, the result of a violation of the master of his farm his mother was regular, who was strongly questioned the U.S. government, said that while all enjoy freedom provided by a struggle for autonomy, there is a hidden village which has absolutely nothing to celebrate, a regime that is expectations consolidated full of falsehood and contradiction, if the people which promotes equality is registered in your documents, what is the truth as the authority to impose?, becoming the only terror fugitive slave policy, intervened in the auction of slaves and deprived the husband of his manly power when his wife and children were caught him, caught forever.

The reality was totally opposite of what was thought one day, so many still swear (... one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. "), Promises that were only lexical lives of thousands in no made sense, was by this, the meanings of these letters had to speak up and fight for that freedom described but hitherto nonexistent, providing proof that the barriers formed by men, does the value required to reject their repressed status and be able to break these paradigms. Freedom is made for men, the minimum degree of humanity would be reflected in their villages causing men to die for a nation that discriminates, wisdom to many lawyers would be absent only with the idea of humiliating to the extent that the ignorance alive accepting everything as well, Douglass used the same documents to require unanimity in their written goals, defended the U.S. Constitution, claiming that the document affirmed the right of all people live in freedom.

The corruption of a state is able to show two aspects of freedom and slavery, for convenience, Douglass managed to build as the voice of protest events and was instructed on the same line of government, and fight for what is written, for that utopia not go along, but stated that justice and freedom for all is not got to know, achievement as that nation is written more to resemble reality, all these great people, worked and gave their lives for a better future for his people, even aspiring to a black could be president of the republic, only asked for individual freedoms and direct participation in the labor process, equality and respect, education and tolerance. Discrimination of a government resulting from a people blinded, fear becomes the ignorant, the courage of their quest for freedom.
