Although both authors use Christianity in their works to connect with their audience‚ Frederick Douglass and Phillis Wheatley go about this task in different ways. As seen in his narrative‚ Douglass accepts Christianity’s values‚ but he points blame to it as one of the means that keep African Americans enslaved.
