This photo Wednesday, Feb. 27, 2019, provided by the New York Governor's Office shows the carved face and name of abolitionist Frederick Douglass in the New York state Capitol, in Albany, N.Y. The Douglass face and name, believed to have been carved into a third-floor column into the ornate interior stonework of the "Million Dollar Staircase" from 1884 to 1898, was corrected on Wednesday to add the second "s" to his last name.
