Fourth of July.
What is Douglass's purpose for giving this speech?

Douglass praises and respects the signers of the Declaration of Independence, people who put the interests of a country above their own. He concedes, however, that the main purpose of his speech is not to give praise and thanks to these men, for he says that the deeds of those patriots are well known.

hope this helps

have a good day :)
