Lib. of Congress.<\/p><\/div><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Like Harper, Edmonia Goodelle Highgate spoke at the 1864 Syracuse Convention. She took the podium on the second day of the Convention when Frederick Douglass introduced her by declaring &#8220;you have your Anna Dickinsons; and we have ours. \u00a0We wish to meet you at every point\u201d (1).\u00a0In this comparison, Douglass equates Highgate with the first woman to address Congress about political issues. Indeed, Highgate had appeared before Congress and President Lincoln just months before in January of 1964. At the height of her career and\u00a0 well-respected by the press as Douglass likened the two orators, like Highgate, Dickinson enjoyed a reputation for her impassioned commitment to abolition and justice when she was just in her teens. \u00a0Like Highgate, Dickinson enjoyed a reputation for her impassioned commitment to abolition and justice when she was just in her teens. Still, the comparison to this well-known white orator paradoxically positions Highgate in Dickinson&#8217;s shadow. The Proceedings record \u201cthe President introduced Miss Edmonia Highgate, an accomplished young lady of Syracuse. \u00a0Miss Highgate urged the Convention to trust in God and press on, and not abate one jot or tittle until the glorious day of jubilee shall come\u201d (2). Following this description, the Proceedings cover male delegates such as John Mercer Langston in greater detail and length; she doesn&#8217;t make another appearance in the convention minutes. Although Robert Hamilton, a delegate and editor, published \u201cAn Interesting Pamphlet\u201d in the <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Liberator <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">December 23, 1864 summarizing the Convention, he also fails to mention either Harper&#8217;s or Highgate\u2019s speech (3). Yet, as with Harper, we can investigate other ways the press reveals glimpses of Highgate&#8217;s activism. Additionally, looking to Highgate\u2019s biography may provide a better sense of her overall career and connection to the Conventions (4).<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Born in 1844 to Charles and Hannah Francis Highgate, Edmonia Highgate was the first known Black person to graduate from Syracuse High School with honors in 1861. Highgate received a teaching certificate through the Syracuse Board of Education where she migrated South to teach through the American Missionary Association (AMA) where she organized the Louisiana Educational Relief Association for Black children.(4) \u00a0Highgate wrote for the <i>Christian Recorder <\/i>as well as the <i>American Freedman<\/i>. Despite her passion for teaching, Highgate became emotionally and physically drained from the teaching conditions in the South. In a letter to George Whipple on June 1, 1864, Highgate expressed \u201cso many of my people who have spent most of manhood\u2019s and womanhood\u2019s freshness in slavery\u201d that have caused \u201cpeculiar crushing emotions which, at first, check even my utterance.\u201d(5) Highgate also experienced trauma through the 1866 New Orleans Massacre as well assisting Southern Black soldiers and white hostility. (6) The 1866 New Orleans Massacre took place on July 30 as a result of white Democrats and police attacking Black Republicans at the Mechanics Institute. Black Republicans gathered in this space during the Louisiana Constitutional Convention to discuss and denounce the newly passed Black Codes and exclusion of voting rights for Black men. The massacre left over 150 people killed, with 34 of those killed being Black.\u00a0(7) Highgate wrote a letter to that was published in the 18 August 1866 <em>Recorder <\/em>titled &#8220;New Orleans Correspondence&#8221; where she described how the massacre influenced her decision to leave. (8)\u00a0Though it&#8217;s rarely taught or cited, Highgate also published a serialized novel in May of 1865, <i>Congojoco<\/i>, in the <i>Christian Recorder<\/i>. (9) Unfortunately, Highgate had an early and untimely death in 1870. We see through obituary statements and letter from family members in the <em>New Orleans Republican<\/em>\u00a0that Highgate was highly valued as a teacher and orator of her time.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read some of Edmonia Highgate&#8217;s contributions to the\u00a0<em>The Christian Recorder\u00a0<\/em>below:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_tabs _builder_version=&#8221;4.20.4&#8243;
