Imagine these thoughts on your mind 24/7 eating away your very soul or you as a person. Sadly Frederick Douglas‚ Malcolm X‚ and Sandra Cisneros all shared these thoughts in common. Although some of their complications and lives were different these differences didn’t restrict their thoughts to being all similar. In a way feeling these thoughts only

In the essay Learning to read and write by Frederick Douglass he talked about growing up as a slave‚ trying to learn how to read and write‚ how it’s hard to get what you want but with a lot of work and effort it can be done. It really connected with me how if he wasn’t white ethnicity he was considered a slave and didn’t have same privliges as the white kids in his neighborhood.

Critical Response on Harriet Jacobs and Frederick Douglass Both Douglass and Jacobs were inspirational icons for the African-Americans in American history. Their contributions to the abolition of slavery and liberalism of the African-American race in the U.S. are very notable and important too; not only for honor but also important to American literature. They both lived during the period of the Antebellum (1820 - 1865) when the abolition of slave trade was a big issue in the country. At this time

In fact‚ slavery and racism are practiced on the basis of one’s own race. As a matter of fact‚ that’s what Alice Walker tries to reflect in her novel. She sheds the light upon this theme in many scenes.
