Frederick Douglass Compare And Contrast

Frederick Douglass and I are complementary in many ways. Believe it or not, I can actually see myself as the young woman version of Frederick Douglass in the 21st century. We have a bundle of similarities, but we also have our distinct variations in our education such as how we learned, what we learned, and what we used to learn. For example, one of us may have had more resources but didn’t really have a specific pattern or order to do it, but the other, even though he didn’t have as much, was more organized on how he wanted to learn. In other words, he had an actual plan mapped out. Mr. Douglass was not well-heeled whatsoever. As a matter of fact, he was a slave. He didn’t have much in terms of finances, but the young lad had two consummate
My whole has musical talent, although only my sister Carole does it for a career. My dad plays trumpet and accordion and can sing. My mom plays piano and sings. My sister plays the flute very beautifully (that is what her master’s degree is in) and also sings. My granny sings and plays piano. My paw paw sings, and I play guitar, sing, and play hand-bells at my church. I’ve played other instruments too, such as trumpet and piano, but I put those behind me years ago. Although in the end, piano ended up not being my thing, it gave me the push I needed to be able to read music which would give me the sturdy foundation to make music. I still had music lessons, but the display of my music skills did not appear in a lesson or by someone reading a song book to me. My ears were the key to that. When I was a little girl, I loved to listen to ABBA with my dad in the car. My parents were amazed when I told them what song I wanted, but I didn’t do it by telling them the track number or the name of the song. Instead, I would sing the tune, and if I knew it really well, I would sing the tune along with some of the lyrics. The reason I was able to do this was because of hearing music all around my house my entire life. Eventually I understood the idea of a song having a starting
I started this because I didn’t get to take it in high school because Lutheran South Academy didn’t offer it. Whenever I saw my friends (who actually got to take that class in their school) signing words in songs, whether at church, or during vocal warm ups, I would get envious. Finally after watching them many times, and imitating them, I finally said to myself “Alright! Enough is enough! I want to learn this language. I desire to actually understand why it is done this way, and what the grammatical structure is. I’m sick of only being able to just watch and imitate them. Copying may help a little, but I need more! I am going to learn American Sign Language. I refuse to be left out because I didn’t get the chance in high school”. Now I am absolutely certain I made a great decision, because I’m having a blast with it. Whenever I get a chance, sometimes I will practice by signing
