Keckley works to feed her and her masters family, allowing them to live and survive based off her job. Even though she does all this, she still does not believe she is worth her while and has no self confidence. Douglass on the other hand has no one that he supports. He works to make his master money only for him to be paid a small portion in return. He despises working for any of his masters just to get paid a couple cents.
