Frederick Douglass believes that human beings do not inherently possess the attributes of slaveholders and slaves. Human nature doesn’t prepare anyone to inflict cruelty on others or to endure torture. He says that in order to prepare humans to have the characteristics of a slave owner or a slave, “Nothing but rigid training, long persisted in, can perfect the character of the one or the other.” It is difficult for humans to let go of their freedom easily and also to develop feelings of hatred for fellow human beings.
