Answer:
B) It serves to point out that basing the justification of slavery on the story of Ham is unsound.
Explanation:
Frederick Douglass's memoir "Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass" contains the slave days and younger days of the author and progresses to his own education and eventual freedom from being a slave. The memoir served and continues to serve as one of the greatest proofs of life writings by a former slave.
In the very first chapter of the memoir, Douglass mentioned how <em>"God cursed Ham and therefore American slavery is right"</em>. But, he counters this point by stating that <em>"If the lineal descendants of Ham are alone to be scripturally enslaved, it is certain that slavery at the south must soon become unscriptural; for thousands are ushered into the world, annually, who, like myself, owe their existence to white fathers, and those fathers most frequently their own masters."</em>
This allusion to the biblical story of how God cursed the sons of Ham to be <em>"the lowest of slaves"</em> (Genesis 9:24) among his brothers serves as a means to bring out the point that<u> justifying slavery based on this biblical story is unsound and even maybe untrue.</u>
Thus, the <u>correct answer is option B</u>.g
