Me read the excerpt from narrative of the life of frederick douglass. she was nevertheless left a slave--a slave for life--a slave in the hands of strangers; and in their hands she saw her children, her grandchildren, and her great-grandchildren divided, like so many sheep, without being gratified with the small privilege of a single word as to their or her own destiny. douglass uses the imagery of sheep in this excerpt for what purpose?

Because sheep are used for their meat, milk, and wool. They are not thanked, they are not really cared for and they are not even treated as a pet. Nobody really pays attention to the sheep, but everybody wants what a sheep can give. That is most likely why he used the sheep to make an imagery of someone who is being used and is seeing descendants being used, but can't do anything about it.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
