Hello. You forgot to mention that this question is about "Narrative of the Life by Frederick Douglass." It is important that you always provide all the necessary information, so that your question is answered, as you deserve.

Answer:

Because the Auld's had different views on how slaves should be treated.

Explanation:

Mrs. Auld believed that slaves were human beings who should be treated with dignity and respect and to help them achieve this type of treatment, she wanted to teach them to read and write, thus allowing them to have a minimum of academic education. . However, his mario, Mr. Auld, did not believe that slaves should be treated with any kindness or compassion. For him, treating slaves as beings worthy of any kindness demoralizes whites and takes away their authority over blacks.

Although Mrs. Auld believed that Frederick (and other blacks) should learn to read and write, Mr. Auld forbade her to teach them, lest they believe they were of any value.

This question refers to the text "Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass."

In this text, Douglass tells us that his masters, Mr. and Mrs. Auld, had different ideas about slaves learning how to read. This was a consequence of the fact that they had different ideas about the value and the place of a slave.

On the one hand, Mrs. Auld is a kind woman who believes slaves can better themselves. She is initially interested in teaching Douglass how to read and write. However, Mr. Auld disagrees with her beliefs, and forbids her to teach the slaves how to read and write. Moreover, he convinces her that the best way to treat slaves is to be cruel and unkind. Such ideas change Mrs. Auld and turn her into a cold, unsympathetic woman.
