The Narrative of Fredrick Douglass.
truth and justice
*the world
the world didn't give free black slaves a house, job, barely any food to eat.why is that.
"There were homeless free blacks in the streets of Baltimore. Did you know that the government pay more to have runaway slaves caught than for a slave to be free. Some actually rip up free blacks certificate just to sell them agin
*The truth and justice are two different things, if u pick one then the other will be a bad decision. Only a very few can make a new path which can choose both.
No trust a afican American in that time period, that is why blacks almost always lost a case in front of a "white" judge.
freedom in the city
*Some homeless free slaves had their papers destroy and sold back into slavery.
*alot of the free slaves were in the city but was living on the streets.
In the city, Douglass freed slaves with no w.here to go
the government
the white children who help him learn to read and write, the sailors who teach him a trade, and people from the North who show him that not all whites are slave owners.
knowledge is the path to freedom
With knowledge you can want, be and/or do anything you want. A great man once told me "i can give you fish for a month or i can teach you how to fish?"
*I can use Benjamin Franklin as an example: One of the smartest man of our time, but was put to a tragic end but with the knowledge he acquired he was put down in history.
Mr. Auld found out that the mrs had taught Fredrick Douglass how to read and write. He told her "stop this at once, if u give a nigger an inch they will take a Ell(its 45 inches).
at that moment fredrick douglass had a revelation. and knew what the white masters did to keep slaves down. and realized that knowledge is power.
In the city, Douglass learns to read and meets a wide variety of people who help him on his road to freedom, the white children who help him learn to read and write, the sailors who teach him a trade, and people from the North who show him that not all whites are slave owners.
*Hugh Auld
Hugh Auld shows the theme knowledge is the path to freedom because he tells his wife not to teach FD to read so he wouldn't be unmanageable
light vs dark
It's like a coin, dark is tails amd light is heads. Its about luck, chance and probability.
An epic battle that lasted throughout time.
"As the sun and the moon struggle to cover the earth, the same as control with the slaves and the master.
they used the bible and there trust in god.
Masters vs slaves
