How does Frederick Douglass dismantle the master's house using the master's tools?

English

omeli [17]3 years ago

Answer:

He used the master's devalued concepts to invest in his own education and thus get rid of the bonds of white supremacy.

Explanation:

The concept of "master's tools" and "master's house" are linked to the concepts of Eurocentrism and white supremacy that have so oppressed and enslaved African Americans. In this concept, the "tools of the master" are the devices that the whites used to allow creating the slave system and making it strong, this system in turn was the "master's house".

Many claim that it was impossible to overcome slavery using the master's tools to destroy the master's house, but Frederick Douglass showed that it is possible. This is because when his "master" used the concepts that blacks were unable to receive education as tools, he felt motivated, to show that he was capable and that this would be the way in which he would find freedom from all the oppression that he lived and that's exactly what he did, that is, he dismantled the master's house with the master's tools.

a contingency break; inattentional blindness

This scene is an example of a contingency break. A contingency break is when, in a piece of media (usually children movies or TV shows) a scene occurs that is immediately retconned in the next scene. A common example of this is in children's cartoons, when a character may have gotten their clothes dirty in one scene, but they are back to normal in the next with no time for them to have been cleaned. This applies to the movie <em>Shrek</em>, as the three blind mice are turned into horses in one frame, but are back to the status quo in the next.

Inattentional blindness is the failure to notice a fully visible, but unexpected, object/action because one's attention was on another object/action. A contingency break can be considered a "real-life" example of inattentional blindness because, if this scene occurred in real-life, you would not notice the mice turning back to normal as your attention was not focused on them.
