Why does proctor insist that mary warren testify in elizabeth’s defense? why does mary warren refuse?

Proctor insists that Mary warren testifies in Elizabeth's defense because his actions lead Elizabeth to the trouble.

Mary Warren refuses to testify because she is scared of Abigail

Explanation:

First of all, Proctor insists that Mary Warren should testify because that way is going to be able to help Elizabeth after he committed many mistakes. After realizing that his innocence if proven might create trouble for his family. So he wants to prevent that.

For the second question, Mary refuses to do it because she knows what Abigail is capable of after signaling many people for witchcraft and gaining influence by it and her position as the niece of Parri's.

        its hard for some people to get along and that’s the case for douglass and canot. most of the time when people do not agree with each other its because they have different presperctives, and that is the case here.

captain canot was never a slave so but he was a slaver and a slave ship captain and just like the slave master's he tought it was it was totally normal, he used captain conot is a cruel man who enjoys whipping slaves but never   got whipped he saw it has a destiny for the slave to be a slave and the slaver to be a slaver   but douglass has suffered whoppings cut   even for no reason sometimes. douglass believed that slavery was not natural to black people, they need to study and learn how to read and write. he knew they have rights.

it was really not the captain’s fault he was just brainwashed by the system and when your brainwashed by the system its hard not to be brainwashed. but the reason douglass wants this is because he has suffered he knows how it feels and will do anything to stop that.
