Book Reviews of Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass
Book Review: A book that all American and Non-American should read
Summary: 5 Stars
The biography of a man born to slavery, that self-taught how to read and write, learned a trade, survived maltreatment, slavery, poverty, degradation, escaped from the southern states and fought for the freedom of Black Americans. The life of someone to look up, someone who came from the bottom and reached a high level in society. This is a book that speaks about struggling, that shows how to develop self-respect, and strong will to improve one self and change the society that abused, underserved, discrimanated and criminalized other humans beings. It is sad to find out that his efforts were left out in time due that discrimination, segregation, mistreatment and neglect still exist toward minority groups in the United States. The iron chains were broken but we still have invisible chains that keep us from learning, improving and receiving equal treatment and opportunities.
