Answer and Explanation:
Notes: Slavery allows it to be so harmful that it changes even the most kind people, making them mean. Education empowers the oppressed. Education is a powerful weapon for blacks. Deprivation can be used as an incentive. Nobody liked to be called an oppressor, even though it was.
I decided to take notes on the most important themes exposed by Douglass. These themes were discovered by reading chapter 6 and by interpreting why Douglass decided to include these moments of his life in his narrative.
The first theme that I noticed is that slavery was widespread and prejudicial to everyone, even for the arms. Slavery placed cruelty in the hearts of white people and made them lose their kindness and kindness by becoming cruel and unworthy. I also noticed that white people were very afraid to allow blacks to have access to education. This is because education allowed the critical thinking that would give blacks the power to fight against the system that oppressed them.
Douglass was deprived of studying, but this deprivation motivated him to strive and receive an education that would make big differences in his life. Last but not least, we can see that the whites knew that the violence of slavery was incorrect, since they did not want them to know that they were extremely violent and oppressive to the slaves they owned.
The author uses several rhetorical strategies that range from personal statements, which increase our empathy for him, to logical and correct statements that show us how that whole slave system worked and how it was manipulated to last. This all causes an extension of what we know about slavery.
Answer:
English people pushed natives off their lands to grow tobacco
Resistance to Spain's attempt at domination = revolts from the natives (like Pope's rebellion in 1680)
Explanation:
The people of England formed more colonies in America and sought more expansion of their influence abroad. They looked for economic stability by growing Tobacco in the Chesapeake area, and as the cultivation of this cash crop increased, they ended up encroaching the land areas owned by Indians. When the Indians resorted to revolution as a way of resisting further encroachment, the English people prioritized killing Indians or rightly pushing them away from the their lands.
The Pueblo people, known as the Native Americans who lived in the areas known as the New Mexico today stood up against religious persecutions and violence brought upon them by the Spanish people. The uprising, triggered by these Native Americans was conceived as a way to get back their religious practices, the culture they cherished and the lands they had, which were all removed from them by people of Spain.
