Answer:

Etiquette is learned

Explanation:

When the author says this he is trying to say that Etiquette is learned and can be modified or adjusted, it does not always stay the same. This is because as times change so does society. Meaning that the customs and beliefs of society change as well, such as what is considered polite behavior. As these changes occur so does Etiquette and the people adjust and learn this new Etiquette.

In lines 97–110, Douglass presents a long list of things that black people are doing. Then in lines 123–130, he presents a list
Lostsunrise [7]
Douglass was always considered an intellectual activist and was very respected for the work that he was doing. In this style, he was able to infiltrate the upper epsilons of society and make real inroads towards equality.

The keyword here is equality.

Douglass first appeals to the popular rhetoric at the time that black people were responsible for many problems in society. This captures the attention of those people he wants to influence into level-headed thinkers.

He then adds a list of things that slave owners were doing to black people to draw parallels between the two sets of actions. This not only served as evidence against the hatred and vitriol suffered by so many, but will also appeal to the sympathetic and logical side of his opposition. 

His smooth writing style and elegant prose had quite the impact on proceedings at the time because he was able to make educated and balanced comparisons such as this that were irrefutable.

Why might being divergent in this society be considered dangerous ?~ Divergent book
melomori [17]
Being divergent would make you more powerful than just having one characteristic. Divergent people were so rare and special that they would be killed if found about. The factions kept order and people in their place who were the same and if you were divergent you wouldn't have much of a future because it could mess up the government system.
