... This was the same inside of “Narrative of My Escape from Slavery”, by Moses Roper. ... He acted his fight for freedom out visually, by trying to escape while some of the ones in the text acted theirs out verbally. ...
They showed this by free blacks organizing elaborate undergrounds escape networks made to free fugitives by helping them escape north. ... When he was escaping he always used his sense of direction he developed by being sold from slave owner to slave owner and having to travel back to their homes with them. They talked of Frederick Douglas fleeing from Europe to the United States in the search for his freedom when he wrote the “Narrative of the life of Frederick Douglass”. ...
Frederick Douglas role in the movement seemed to be that of putting the role of slavery out on paper. ... He wanted them to “wage a stronger fight against slavery in the south, and to promote a more diligent struggle against racial discrimination in the north”. This showed they didn’t have just one main point of interest, which was slavery. ... Even though slavery in the South was bad you still had situations in the North going on with African Americans that weren’t right and lawful.
