The first step in her downward course was in her ceasing to instruct me. She now commenced to practice her husband's precepts. She finally became even more violent in her opposition than her husband himself. She was not satisfied with simply doing as well as he had commanded; she seemed anxious to do better. Nothing seemed to make her more angry than to see me with a newspaper. She seemed to think that here lay the danger. I have had her rush at me with a face made all up of fury, and snatch from me a newspaper, in a manner that fully revealed her apprehension. She was an apt woman; and a little experience soon demonstrated, to her satisfaction, that education and slavery were incompatible with each other. ā€”Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass,
Frederick Douglass

Ead the passage from "marriage is a private affairā€ by chinua achebe. "i shall never see her,ā€ was the reply. from that night the father scarcely spoke to his son. he did not, however, cease hoping that he would realize how serious was the danger he was heading for. day and night he put him in his prayers. nnaemeka, for his own part, was very deeply affected by his fatherā€™s grief. but he kept hoping that it would pass away. if it had occurred to him that never in the history of his people had a man married a woman who spoke a different tongue, he might have been less optimistic. "it has never been heard,ā€ was the verdict of an old man speaking a few weeks later. in that short sentence he spoke for all of his people. this man had come with others to commiserate with okeke when news went round about his sonā€™s behaviour. by that time the son had gone back to lagos. "it has never been heard,ā€ said the old man again with a sad shake of his head. "what did our lord say? ā€ asked another gentleman. "sons shall rise against their fathers; it is there in the holy book.ā€ "it is the beginning of the end,ā€ said another. how does this passage reinforce the traditional social hierarchy? the older men in the village tell okeke that he should respect nnaemekaā€™s decision. the older men in the village console nnaemeka about okekeā€™s attitude toward his choices. the older men in the village commiserate with okeke regarding nnaemekaā€™s decision to disobey him. the older men in the village think that nnaemeka should be optimistic that okeke will accept his decision.
