They want to prevent him from reading.

This passage is in the section of the memoir when Douglass is talking about how they wanted to keep him from an education. The paragraph this text is found in begins "Mrs. Auld was an apt woman, and the advice of her husband, and her own experience, soon demonstrated, to her entire satisfaction, that education and slavery are incompatible with each other." It goes on to say how he already knew his alphabet so her concerns about him getting an education were too late. He already had the knowledge he needed to continue his studies.

How do I write a complaint letter

faltersainse [42]

It is a fairly simple task. Start with who you are addressing it to,"Dear, ...." (also try not to use,"to whom it may concern." know who you are complaining to) Then like any other letter you skip a line or two and indent. Then you could start off with something like,"It has came to my attention that...." Just be sure to be nice but firm with your words. Then at the end say something like,"Thank you for taking time to address this issue, Here is my email, [email protected] (or/and your number) if you would like to get in touch with me."

Sincerely,
Clark.
