In the narrative of The Life of Frederick Douglass Slave, an American Slave, by Frederick Douglass slave owners rely on the dehumanization of slaves and revoke fundamental human rights in order to prevent slaves from rebelling which in turn allows the institution of slavery to continue. In order for the institution of slavery to continue all of the following participants need to perform their assigned roles. Traditionally, the slave master using violence and poor treatment to get his slave to obey his orders and as a result the slave obeys his master’s orders. However, when a slave does not perform his role and starts to rebel this threatens the authority of the master and weakens his role. When a slave rebels this poses great conflict…
What is slavery? According to Dictionary.com it is the process in which “a person who is the property of and wholly subject to another; a bondservant”. Slavery is very unheard of in this millennium era for as it first occurred in 1619 when the first African Americans were brought over to North American colony of Jamestown and ended in 1865 when the thirteenth amendment was ratified and abolished slavery.

Slavery was a chain of unjustifiable…

January 1st, 1863, during the third year of the civil war, president Abraham Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation, which stated that “all persons held as slaves within any State or designated part of a State the people whereof shall then be in rebellion against the United States shall be then, thenceforward, and forever free”. This document, however, had many limitations. It did not apply to the Border States, only the states that had seceded from the union. Although the Emancipation Proclamation failed to end slavery, it succeeded in giving hope to many slaves, and it boosted the moral of the black soldiers fighting for the union.…

The time period I was born into is said to have the most accepting group of people in generations. We're able to reach this point of acceptance because we've learned from the mistakes of the generations that came before us. When the famous Abolitionist and former slave, Frederick Douglass, was alive people weren't so accepting. After Douglass was able to escape the hostile chains of slavery he went on to write an autobiography called Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass. This novel's purpose was to create an argument to help with the abolishment of slavery through the dehumanization of slaves, the lack of loyalty from the masters, and the corrupt souls of slave owners.…
Slavery is one of the worst things that happened in American history. It brought harm to millions of people in the South and left a mark on our legacy as a country.

Whipping and lynching were ways in which the slaveowners would dehumanize their slaves. “He would whip her to make her scream, and whip her to make her hush; and not until overcome by fatigue, would he cease to swing the blood-clotted cowskin.” Slaves were treated like animals. Frederick was punished because of defending his own rights. He said “I still made no answer, nor did I move to strip myself.…
Ever since the beginning of the Unites States slaves were being brought overseas to work, due to that, slavery was the roots of the United States foundation. The next generations of Americans only knew life as it was, with slaves. They didn’t see that what they were doing was wrong. In their eyes they were justifying slavery from the Bible. There was a common misinterpretation of the “Curse of Ham.” Due to this they thought themselves to be superior, the higher race. They also realized the importance of slavery and how it was benefiting their economy, so most Americans were able to overlook aspects of the slave’s treatment.…
Slavery was a horrible thing, maybe even one of the worst the US has done over its entire lifetime. Bought and sold, beaten, no freedom, no pay, there were many bad things about it, nothing good because the only good thing that happened was that they brought different forms of food, religion, and music that they introduced to the US. The Slave trade in the Atlantic World had many factors that were put in and were even taken out; the way that slaves were taken, what they contributed to our lives, this single event changed so much history that would have never happened if this did not occur.…
Every human being should be given the right to an education, love and the pursuit of happiness. A slave is a human. Therefore, the pilfering of a human’s right through the force of human cruelty is an act of dehumanization for the purpose of ownership and free labor. The act of dehumanizing a slave is a slave master’s desire. A slave master needs control over the mind of the enslaved in order to gain free employment. Slavery is a dehumanizing institution. Slaves are captured, beaten, tortured and traumatize for the purpose of free labor. The intention of dehumanizing a slave is to control, manipulate, and force the intelligence of a person into bondage.…
