A review by sarahsbookstats
Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass by Frederick Douglass

challenging dark emotional informative inspiring reflective sad medium-paced

5.0

This book was appalling to read, some passages about the horrors of slavery were very graphic, but I think that was necessary to drive the point home. The mindset of the slaveholders is very well explored, as well as their hypocrisy and all their tricks to maintain slavery. The highlight is also placed on education as a tool against oppression.
