Well that was something Frederick Douglass, a former American slave, had to live through. 
Background information: Frederick Douglass is the author of The Narrative of Frederick Douglass, which was written in 1845. This narrative was a big help in ending slavery because of the good figurative language, and accurate examples of how slavery is terrible for slaves and how slavery corrupts slave holders. It was also because a slave wrote it, and usually slaves shouldn't know how to read or write, but that is what makes this narrative so special. 
Thesis statement: Along with the use of descriptive writing Douglass uses his personal experience to reveal the effects of slavery on slaves and slave owners, which supports his position to end slavery. ]]> 2019-02-25 13:28:25 UTC https://padlet.com/ertarpy/3mzju77v9oa8/wish/334824529 ertarpy https://padlet.com/ertarpy/3mzju77v9oa8/wish/334825458 Theme: Slavery corrupts slave holders
Topic sentence: Lastly, Douglass gives examples of how slavery corrupts slave holders to help support his position to end slavery.
Quote 5: Excerpt 3 "That cheerful
eye, under the influence of slavery, soon became red with rage;
that voice, made all of sweet accord, changed to one of harsh
and horrid discord; and that angelic face gave place to that of a
demon."
Quote 6: Excerpt 3 "Under its influence, the tender heart became stone, and the
lamblike disposition gave way to one of tiger-like fierceness."]]> 2019-02-25 13:30:05 UTC https://padlet.com/ertarpy/3mzju77v9oa8/wish/334825458 ertarpy https://padlet.com/ertarpy/3mzju77v9oa8/wish/334825770 Theme: Slavery is terrible for slaves
Topic Sentence: In addition to that, Douglass will give examples of how slavery is terrible for slaves to support his position in abolishing slavery.
Quote 3: Excerpt 1 "I never saw my mother, to know her as such, more than
four or five times in my life; and each of these times was
very short in duration, and at night."
Quote 4: Excerpt 2 "There were no beds given the slaves, unless one coarse blanket
be considered such, and none but the men and women had
these."]]> 2019-02-25 13:30:37 UTC https://padlet.com/ertarpy/3mzju77v9oa8/wish/334825770 ertarpy https://padlet.com/ertarpy/3mzju77v9oa8/wish/334826009 Theme: Figurative language
Topic Sentence: Something that helped Douglass support his position to end slavery was when he used figurative language in his writing. 
Quote 1: Excerpt 4 "Mr. Covey succeeded in breaking me. I was broken in body,
soul, and spirit."
Quote 2: Excerpt 5 "On the one hand, there stood slavery, a stern reality, glaring
frightfully upon us,—its robes already crimsoned with the blood
of millions, and even now feasting itself greedily upon our own
flesh."]]> 2019-02-25 13:31:03 UTC https://padlet.com/ertarpy/3mzju77v9oa8/wish/334826009 ertarpy https://padlet.com/ertarpy/3mzju77v9oa8/wish/334826223 Topic Sentence: All of these are examples of how Douglass supports his position to end slavery in his narrative, figurative language, examples of how slavery is terrible for slaves, and examples of how slavery corrupts slave holders. Without all of this in his narrative or even not having the narrative written at all, might have made it so we still have slavery to this day. ]]> 2019-02-25 13:31:27 UTC https://padlet.com/ertarpy/3mzju77v9oa8/wish/334826223
