Answer:

Frederick Douglass' feeling about the "Underground Railroad" is negative, considering the amount of publicity it has been given.

Explanation:

In his memoir "Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass", the speaker and writer Frederick Douglass recounts how his life of slavery and the slavery system and its exploitation on his people.

Douglass feels that the hidden medium of transporting rescued slaves <em>"the Underground Railroad"</em> should be something that is done in a discreet manner. The publicity with which the <em>"railroad"</em> has been dealt with is something that he personally feels strongly against, as shown in Chapter XI of the book. He admits that he <em>"honors those good men and women for their noble  daring, and applaud them for willingly subjecting themselves to  bloody persecution, by openly avowing their participation in the  escape of slaves"</em>. But he did not like the idea of <em>"the very public manner in which [....] the underground railroad"</em> was conducted. He explains that the very act of rescuing them is a noble deed indeed, but with its publicity, everything that they were working for is all for nothing. For in publicizing the issue, they not only endanger the lives of the slaves but also provide an insight and information to the slave owners about their slaves' escape.

Douglass claims that this <em>"do nothing towards  enlightening the slave, whilst they do much towards  enlightening the master"</em>, so their main aim is to provide a safe passage for the slaves to escape, and not hinder that process in any way.

Explain recent lore of Georgenotfound in an essay form of at least 100 words.
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

After leaving the cabinet with JShlatt, George seemingly disappeared off to somewhere secluded. While others were battling and raining down withers or bombs he was just building a nice little cottage. After the war had ended and new Lmanburg was back, Tommyinnit came in as revenge against Dream and burned down Dream's cottage. This lead to Tommy being exiled and George seemed to just about forget about it. George was apart of Kinko Kingdom with SapNap and Karl but rarely appeared on streams so there was an ongoing joke that he's just always asleep.

Interesting lore appeared when Dream XD, the god of the dream smp appeared to George saying that he looked like someone he used to know. The god seemed intensely fond of him and George used this to his advantage to get himself very good items. Eventually Dream XD grew angry with Georges demands and yelled at him for being greedy. He still appears to George rarely.

Explanation:

Dream SMP am I right?
