Read the excerpt from Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass.
We were all ranked together at the valuation. Men and
women, old and young, married and single, were ranked
with horses, sheep, and swine. There were horses and
men, cattle and women, pigs and children, all holding the
same rank in the scale of being, and were all subjected
to the same narrow examination. Silvery-headed age
and sprightly youth, maids and matrons, had to undergo
the same indelicate inspection.
Which answer choice best states Douglass's purpose in
this excerpt?
O to demand payment from slaveholders for their
crimes
O to show how children were treated better than elderly
people
O to compare his experience with that of other enslaved
persons
O to describe how people were degraded and treated
inhumanely
