She at first lacked the depravity indispensable to shutting me up in mental darkness." ]]> 2022-11-01 14:37:07 UTC https://padlet.com/ljeanmar/zirwiw7m88vnlhhd/wish/2365036975 ljeanmar https://padlet.com/ljeanmar/zirwiw7m88vnlhhd/wish/2365041571 2022-11-01 14:39:48 UTC https://padlet.com/ljeanmar/zirwiw7m88vnlhhd/wish/2365041571 refer465638ghost https://padlet.com/ljeanmar/zirwiw7m88vnlhhd/wish/2367374590  "In entering upon the duties of a slaveholder, she did not seem to perceive that I sustained to her the relation of a mere chattel, and that for her to treat me as a human being was not only wrong, but dangerously so. Slavery proved as injurious to her as it did to me" (Douglas, 1).

Despite the suffering he through, he did not lose hope. He was determined to escape whether it meant losing his life. It is this determination that would help other slaves overcome slavery. Today there are still many injustices, and I think Frederick is a good example of courage.]]> 2022-11-07 13:24:43 UTC https://padlet.com/ljeanmar/zirwiw7m88vnlhhd/wish/2373050541 ljeanmar https://padlet.com/ljeanmar/zirwiw7m88vnlhhd/wish/2373051026 Teaching a slave to read and write was so forbidden that slaveholders would hurt their own people if they tried to educate one of them.

Fredrick admired her mistress, but he also pointed out that she was too kind and lacked the strength to discipline Fredrick at first. ]]> 2022-11-08 14:56:33 UTC https://padlet.com/ljeanmar/zirwiw7m88vnlhhd/wish/2375144194
