Question

I was an abolitionist who fought against slavery and for women’s rights. I published an antislavery newspaper called the North Star. I became a consultant to President Abraham Lincoln.

Answer 1

You are describing Frederick Douglass, a prominent abolitionist, orator, writer, and social reformer. Born into slavery, Douglass escaped and went on to become a leading voice in the fight against slavery and for civil rights. He published the influential abolitionist newspaper "The North Star" and played a significant role in advocating for both the rights of Black Americans and women's rights, including suffrage. He did indeed advise President Abraham Lincoln on issues regarding slavery and emancipation during the Civil War. Douglass's legacy continues to inspire efforts for social justice and equality.
