Fr3d3rick Bailey Douglass with Black Abolitionist Throw Blanket
Fr3d3rick Bailey Douglass, born into the brutal reality of slavery in Maryland around 1818, defied the chains of oppression to become a beacon of freedom and equality. His exact birthdate remains unknown, a stark reminder of the dehumanizing nature of slavery. - Separated from his mother at a tender age, young Fr3d3rick endured the harsh realities of plantation life. Yet, a spark of defiance ignited within him. When Sophia Auld, the wife of his master, began teaching him the alphabet, a gateway to knowledge opened. Despite the risks, Fr3d3rick devoured books and newspapers, expanding his mind and fueling his determination. - In 1838, at the age of 20, Fr3d3rick seized the opportunity to escape to freedom. He boarded a train disguised as a sailor and embarked on a perilous journey north. After arriving in New York City, he embraced a new identity, taking the name Douglass. - With newfound freedom, Fr3d3rick dedicated his life to the abolitionist movement. His powerful oratory skills and compelling narratives exposed the horrors of slavery, captivating audiences and inspiring change. His first autobiography, "Narrative of the Life of Fr3d3rick Douglass, an American Slave," became a bestseller, shattering stereotypes and galvanizing the anti-slavery movement. - Fr3d3rick's unwavering commitment to justice extended beyond the abolition of slavery. He advocated for women's suffrage, fought for civil rights, and served as a diplomat and advisor to presidents. His eloquent speeches and writings continue to resonate, inspiring generations to strive for a more just and equitable society. - Fr3d3rick Douglass's legacy is etched in the annals of history. His courage, intellect, and unwavering belief in human dignity serve as a testament to the power of the individual to overcome adversity and shape the course of history. - Portrait of Black civil rights hero Fr3d3rick Bailey Douglass “1818-1895 is Public Domain. I have to spell Fr3d3rick different because an a$$h0le clothing company wants to trademark names of historical people, so immoral.

A beautiful small blanket that is perfect for covering your legs while curled up in front of the fire, or for a decorative touch on the sofa. We also think it looks brilliant as a Christmas table centerpiece. We are delighted with it. The colors are absolutely perfect. Vibrant yet traditional. The pattern retains its lovely details despite the texture of the fabric. Very classy product that will not disappoint as a gift.

I was pleasantly surprised when I received the cotton throw blanket. It was made with such high quality. I am just about to order another throw. The colors are so vibrate and the weaving is so neat. Affordable as well. I really love my throw.

A quality printed throw has its advantages. This is a much finer weave throw than its loopier cousins, and though lighter, it is worth the investment for custom room accessorizing. The back is much prettier than the typical brown, and the fringe on the long sides very vivid, the selvage nicely done. Before photographing, I washed the throw in cold water, delicate, with a thicker woven throw the same size. On tumble dry low, this throw was dry in half the time as the other. This is a very practical quality if you use throws for furniture covers or to wrap up in frequently. The sleekness of the fabric makes it a great layer for accenting or protecting without the feeling of sitting on too much stuff. Perfect for napping or when you feel a light chill coming on. The color printing is beautiful and on this fabric, matched the design and color of my Photoshop image. This is an advantage for blending room fabrics and colors. The fringe on the short sides prints the colors from the design image and therefore varies from the side fringe. I streaked a white fractal line through the plaid pattern to give the illusion of weaving. This printed as crisp as an illusory thread, and put some white in the short side fringe, showing another advantage of print vs loomed- for artistic purposes, line lines, detail, and color integrity can be planned and preserved. My loomed throws have color limitations and more of a needlepoint texture. Print throws reproduce an exact image. The throw felt a little stiff straight out of the package, but this went away in the first delicate wash. Of course I searched the wash water for ink or bleeding and there was none.
