Frederick Douglas uses metaphors in this chapter such as <em>“…and thereby run the hazard of closing the slightest avenue by which a brother slave might clear himself of the chains and fetters of slavery”</em> to tell the reader that enslavement is not just a restriction of liberty of one’s body but also the restriction of one’s soul. The mind of a slave is not free. Douglas also lets the reader know that even though himself is free from slavery physically, his mind and spirit is not because society did not create conditions so he can feel like a completely free man.

Frederick also mentions “<em>I have never approved of the very public manner in which some of our western friends have conducted what they call underground railroad…” </em>By underground railroad he that meant the secret and illegal routes and houses that helped slaves to escape to free cities.

He compares some men that were “money kidnappers” - men who gained money to bring back slaves who fled to nonslave states as - <em>“ferocious beasts of the forest like in wait for their prey”</em>

Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

I <em>do</em> agree with Roosevelt.

Explanation:

The battle referred in the question is The Battle of San Juan Hill and took place on Jul1 1, 1898, as part of the American-Spanish War. This battle was a very important factor to determine the course of the war. In this battle, Roosevelt was in charge of the Rough Riders (1st United States Volunterr Cavalry). The Battle of San Juan Hill is also considered their biggest triumph.

The Medal of Honor is an award delivered by the President of the US in name of the Congress and it is given to members of the Army, Navy or Air Force who have expressed acts of valor during their service. This battle was won by the Rough Riders, and according to what historians say, Roosevelt was, perhaps, the most important factor. So, according to the standards, I agree with Roosevelt.
