In Chapters V and VI, Douglass advances the idea that slavery is not only damaging to the slave, but also to the slaveholder. He does so in two ways. The first one is through the character of Sophia Auld. She is a kind mistress who treats him well and wants to teach him how to read and write. However, after scolding from her husband, she turns into a cruel person.

The second case is that of Mrs. Hamilton. The woman owns two slave girls, Mary and Henrietta. She is extremely cruel to them as well. Douglass cites these examples in order to show that owning slaves causes slaveholders to become cruel people, and it eliminates everything that is human, kind and compassionate from their personality (thus, dehumanizing them). In this way, slavery damages the owner as much as the slave.

Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

The lights were glaringly bright as the music continued on its rhythmic beat. The laughing was contagious and suddenly everyone was taking part in the festivities of the party. Just when we decided that we'd had enough dancing for the night they entered the room, we were impressed by what they were wearing. Their outfits were outrageously stunning, elegant, yet casual enough for a small party such as this one. Everyone stared as they entered the room, the dancing ceased as the main attraction had seemed to enter.

Main Idea:

Make Sure to use descriptive words and dialogue. Why were people impressed by what they were wearing? Should be the main question you ask yourself while writing, make sure to have fun with it!

The Pet Cloning Controversy
MariettaO [177]
One argument in support of pet cloning is that cloning "brings many pet owners joy." People who lose a beloved pet can clone the animal and feel that love again. While cloned animals are not the exact same as the original, clones do share some distinctive traits.

One argument against pet cloning is that cloning is unnatural. These people believe that cloning does not happen in nature, so people should not clone animals. The author of this article believes the positive aspects of cloning outweigh the negative ones.
