Answer:
The correct answer is D. One noted author who wrote about his experiences as a slave was Frederick Douglass.
Explanation:
Frederick Douglass was an African American abolitionist, editor, publicist, politician and reformer. He was one of the most important advocates of the abolition of slavery and he is seen as one of the most influential writers and speakers in American history.
Douglass was born as a slave. Possibly he was the son of his owner Aaron Anthony. He lived with his grandparents until he was 6 years old, as he was separated early from his mother Harriet Bailey (who died when he was 7 years old). As a six-year-old, he was moved to Wye House plantation, where Aaron Anthony was overseer. When Anthony died in 1826, Douglass was given to Lucretia Auld, who sent him to work at Hugh and Sophia Auld in Baltimore. Sophia taught the Douglas alphabet, and he learned to read and write.
On September 3, 1838, Douglass managed to escape, and arrived in New York by train 24 hours later. On September 15, 1838, he married Anna Murray, a free black woman he met in Baltimore the year before. The couple had five children.
In 1841 he became the agent of the Massachusetts Anti-slavery Society. Between 1847-1860 he published the weekly magazine the North Star.
During the Civil War, Douglass recommended that African American soldiers be used against the South.
In 1872, Douglass became the first African American to be the United States Vice President candidate in conjunction with the Victoria Woodhull presidential election campaign through the Equal Rights Party. However, Douglass did not approve the nomination, and did not campaign.
