Frederick Douglass Factual Analysis

In "Frederick Douglass" the author uses factual evidence ot develope important ideas. For exmaple, it states " Because he was born into slavery, Douglass did not learn the alphabet until age twelve." This detail helps develop ideas of hardwork when he learned how to read and write. "In 1838, Douglass successfully escaped slavery by boarding a train and arriving in New York—a state where slavery was illegal." Here it shows how Douglass finally escapes slavery and goes to a place where slavery is illlegeal. In "The Underground Railroad" the author also uses factual evidence to develope important ideas. FOr example, "Technically the Fugitive Slave Law of 1793 required state officials to return slaves who had escaped to free states." Here the
author uses factual evidence to support his ideas. Another facutal evidence he uses is "Quaker Levi Coffin and his wife Catherine helped more than 2,000 slaves to freedom."
