What parallels,or similarities,so you see between the books Douglass reads and his own life?

English

DiKsa [7]3 years ago

Frederick Douglass was a former slave who, after becoming a free man, was an abolitionist, a writer and an orator. He was only able to learn how to read at age 12 and he would read whatever he could find: poems, newspapers, books, political pamphlets... He also owned a private library at home. Douglass believed that what he could learn from books could never be taken away from him - it would make him more aware and knowledgeable and that meant freedom to him. That said, this is the main parallel between his old life (as a slave), his new life (as a free man) and the books he read (which would enable him to learn new things on a daily basis): all those situations mentioned above meant freedom to Douglass.

Answer:

Social media helps people find and talk to old friends, family, coworkers and anyone else they may know easier and efficiently. The idea of posting also updates people on how someone's life is going, what theyre thinking, or how theyre doing without actually talking to that person. It can also show you that the person has other friends and other things going on in their lofe that you might not know about. You can know alot about a person without even talking to them, but oftentimes social media sparks conversations and long lasting friendships between people.
