Analysis and comments on The North Star Whispers to the Blacksmith's Son by Vachel Lindsay

Comment 1 of 1, added on May 29th, 2005 at 5:19 AM.

It's about the movement of the Abolitionists. Frederick Douglass the
ex-slave and great orator/abolitionist started the North Star newspaper in
his heroic struggle to free Amereican Negroes from bondage. the poem is a
tribute and an appreciation of the struggle to eliminate racial prejudice
in America, a subject very dear to Lindsey's heart and Soul. He's a
Revolutionary Poet and a gentleman.
