What is Douglass’ tone in the second paragraph? Identify particular word or
phrasing choices that support that tone.
What is the effect of this tone on his
audience?
"...Above your national joy, I hear the mournful wail of millions! To forget them, to pass over their wrongs, and to chime in with the popular theme, would be treason most scandalous and shocking, and would make me a reproach before God and the world. I do not hesitate to declare, with all my soul, that the character and conduct of this nation never looked blacker to me than on this day! Whether we turn to the declarations of the
past, or to the professions of the present, the conduct of the nation seems equally hideous and revolting. America is false to the past, false to the present, and solemnly binds herself to be false to the future."
