Frederick Douglass

Frederick Douglass (born Frederick Augustus Washington Bailey, c. February 1818[3] – February 20, 1895) was an African-American social reformer, orator, writer, and statesman. After escaping from slavery, he became a leader of the abolitionist movement, gaining note for his dazzling oratory[4] and incisive antislavery writing. He stood as a living counter-example to slaveholders' arguments that slaves lacked the intellectual capacity to function as independent American citizens.[5][6] Many Northerners also found it hard to believe that such a great orator had been a slave.[7] A firm believer in the equality of all people, whether black, female, Native American, or recent immigrant, Douglass famously said, "I would unite with anybody to do right and with nobody to do wrong Life as a slave Douglass around 29 years of age.

FIRST CROWDFUNDING for our mother earth! On July 1, 2015 we will launch The First Crowdfunding for Pachamama on Earth. People all over the world will be able to buy land freeing Pachamama, by square meter using our crowd funding site. By doing this purchase they also support the different projects that will be developed on that land. We will start buying land free in the jungle of Peru where we are working in matters of reforestation, implementing support of all kinds, to people with low resources and hope it will soon grassroot allover our Planet ! Help Free Pachamama by showing your support ! We will supply any person or organisation interested, with the document that will give them a blueprint to use after having bought a piece of land with the purpose to buy Pachamama free. In this very instance, we have a team of lawyers working on a legal document, in which will state, that the habitants of that land are free sovereign human beings. We want to start in the Rainforest of the Amazones, where the lungs of the Planet reside.
