Über den Autor
Martin R. Delany (1812 - 1885) was an American physician, social reformer, and soldier. He founded and edited the North Star with Frederick Douglass (1847-1849) and was a proponent of colonization as a solution to slavery, exploring possible sites in South America and Africa. During the Civil War he helped recruit volunteers for the 54th Massachusetts regiment and served as its surgeon. In 1865, he was the first black man to receive a commission in the U.S. army, with the rank of major.
