And one newspaper writer said that in the hands of the abolitionists, the Declaration had become a very seditious instrument. For the Southerners, the Constitution is the real document of the American Revolution. Because that's the document, one, that's the structure of government and all of that, but also it's the document that is protecting slavery.

And so I sort of characterized it by saying that, you know, the Die Anti-Slavery-Mitglieder hofften, dass die Deklaration die Nation von der Slavery retten würde, während die Pro-Slavery-Mitglieder hofften, dass die Konstitution die Nation von der Deklaration retten würde.

I mean, it does catch on, that's for sure. I don't know if it's... There's a way of thinking about this poem in its relationship, and we started talking about that, to Harper's Ferry. And Harper's Ferry is the raid... das John Brown in 1859 auf dieser Armut, dieser föderalen Armut in Virginia machte.

Sein Plan war, er würde die Armut besiegen, alle Waffen und Ammunition nehmen, und dann würden sie in die Wälder von Virginia rausgehen und sie zu Verstorbenen distribuieren. Und offensichtlich warnt er gegen diesen ziemlich verrückten Akt von fast jedem, insbesondere Frederick Douglass.

And so it was this really massively significant event throughout the country.

Yeah. The case has been made, and I think it's fairly strong, that the poem itself really is a sort of allegory. It's published in late 1860 in The Atlantic, monthly.
