B is correct for this question
I looked this question up and was able to find two answer options for it:
A. Douglass and Jacobs both wrote important autobiographies about their experience as slaves.
B. Douglass and Jacobs both escaped from slavery in the 1800's.
Answer:
The main idea of the passage is:
A. Douglass and Jacobs both wrote important autobiographies about their experience as slaves.
Explanation:
From the passage, we can safely infer that both Douglass and Jacobs escaped slavery in the 1800's taking into consideration the year they were born. However, that is not the focus of the paragraph. Notice how the author compares Douglass' and Jacobs' lives, focusing especially on the fact that they both wrote autobiographies and became supporters of the antislavery movement. This is the main idea of the passage: that Douglass and Jacobs become authors and that they described their own experience as slaves in their books.
I think D. in my old griefs, and with my childhood's faith
Would you have me argue that man is entitled to liberty? That he is the rightful owner of his own body? You have already declared it.
