Answer:

The correct answer to the question: What is Douglass´ punishment for trying to escape, as explained in Chapter 10 of "Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass", would be, C: He is sent back to live with Master Covey to endure further punishment.

Explanation:

In Chapter 10, of "Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass", Douglass himself starts by saying that for a year, he was engaged by contract to work away from his real master, Thomas, and with Master Edward Covey, as a punishment. During that time, Douglass not only experiences the worst parts of slavery, the constant beating and whippings and humiliation performed on him by Covey, but he also feels a return of his desire to break away from his situation as a slave and seek freedom. He tries to escape the constat abuses of Covey by begging help from his real master, Thomas, once, but is sent out again to live out the rest of the contract, no matter the consequences, or circumnstances. Duglass himself changes the last six months of his punishment by literally standing up to Covey and showing him that he will no longer allow him to push him, or mistreat him. Douglass comes out of service with Covey in 1833.

Why did white Southern Democrats
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

A. They feared the consequences of African Americans having political power.

Explanation:

To disenfranchise means to take away a person's right to vote.  This was always an issue with African Americans during the Reconstruction.  The Southern Democrats were worried that giving the African Americans the right to vote would encourage their participation in politics, which would in turn challenge their political strategies and policies.  The Democrats did everything they could to prevent black men from registering to vote despite the fact that the 15th Amendment gave them suffrage.
