Fredrick_Douglas

Fredrick Douglas The thing that really amazed me the most about what I have read thus far is how poorly the slaves were really treated. I have heard many stories before about how slaves were beat, but I never really heard to what extent. Throughout the first ten chapters of this book it talks about how slaves were beat to near death many, many times. For example, just when the book starts in the very first chapter Fredrick Douglas talks about his very first experience of seeing someone getting beaten. He saw his Aunt Hester get beat on her naked body to the point where she was totally torn up and bloody. Another thing that shows how bad they treated them, is when in the slaves, beat, about, treated, thing, really, , talks, someone, read, first, book, write, very, truly, times, slavery, never, heard, fredrick, douglas, chapter, bad, amazed, trying, totally, torn, thus, throughout, third, things, ten, teaching, tar, supposedly, stupid
