Love Twelve Miles Long

Glenda Armand

Glenda Armand imagines Frederick Douglas as a young boy in 1820s Maryland, trying to understand why he can’t live with his mother, who is a slave on another plantation. During a brief night-time visit, Mama answers Frederick’s questions by describing what each mile of her journey is for - remembering, listening, praying, singling, and finally, love. Her strength to travel the distance between them is a poetic testament to the human spirit, showing Frederick that although the road through life is full of hardships, hope, joy, and dreams can grow along the way.
