How does douglass’s cultural point of view as a slave from the early 1800’s shape his motivation to become literate, yet also create obstacles for him? provide at least two examples from the text. write at least a 100 word response.

- Douglass desired to become literate because he was spiritually, mentally, and physically aware of how ignorance and uneducated living was forced on the slaves . He would discover in his youth that ignorance was a handicap that white master's knew could control the African American slaves. Through personal experiences and spiritual revelations Douglass was inspired.

- becoming educated was an obstacle for Douglass because he had been damaged mentally and physically his entire life as a slave. He also knew the consequences for a black man who sought to be educated and gain liberty of his own mind.
