Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass - 0 views

  • My new mistress proved to be all she appeared when I first met her at the door,—a woman of the kindest heart and finest feelings. She had never had a slave under her control previously to myself, and prior to her marriage she had been dependent upon her own industry for a living. She was by trade a weaver; and by constant application to her business, she had been in a good degree preserved from the blighting and dehumanizing effects of slavery. I was utterly astonished at her goodness.

      Douglass' well-rounded perception of Sophia Auld, a "woman of the kindest heart," that had mostly avoided the "blighting" and "dehumanizing" effects of slavery.
  • Slavery proved as injurious to her as it did to me. When I went there, she was a pious, warm, and tender-hearted woman. There was no sorrow or suffering for which she had not a tear. She had bread for the hungry, clothes for the naked, and comfort for every mourner that came within her reach. Slavery soon proved its ability to divest her of these heavenly qualities. Under its influence, the tender heart became stone, and the lamblike disposition gave way to one of tiger-like fierceness.
    • Billy Gerchick
       
      By being submissive to her husband's demands, Auld embodies the archetype of the enslaver: a person who not only robs another of humanity; a person who by being the oppressor robs herself of humanity.

HCG diet side effects - HCG diet dangers - HCG Drops Effects - 0 views

  •  
    HCG diet side effects are an obvious concern for anyone considering HCG (Human Chorionic Gonadotropin), a bodily hormone, as a weight loss option. I'll start with the most important fact, there is no solid evidence at all about any risks whatsoever of the HCG hormone itself to the body, the HCG diet dangers involve the way in which the diet plan is implemented, and these need to be considered seriously!
