- I'll give you some bread in return for you to teach me to read.
- As Mr. Auld sees Douglass reading, he says, " ...it was unlawful, as well as unsafe, to teach a slave to read…It would forever unfit him to be a slave. He would at once become unmanageable, and of no value to his master" (Douglass Paragraph 4).
- Dear god, this sounds horrible. I've lived my whole life in this condition and there's no hope.
- There's no hope.
- After Mr.Auld says that a slave who can read is unfit to be a slave, Douglass realizes, "I now understood what had been to me a most perplexing difficulty—to wit, the white man’s power to enslave the black man. It was a grand achievement, and I prized it highly. From that moment,I understood the pathway from slavery to freedom"(Douglass Paragraph 4).

- Douglass wants to find people who can teach him to read, so he goes to the white boys in the neighborhood and tells them that he will give them bread if they teach him how to read.
- Sure.

- Later, Douglass starts to read more about slavery and feels hopeless. He said, "The more I read, the more I was led to abhor and detest my enslavers. I could regard them in no other light than a band of successful robbers, who had left their homes, and gone to Africa, and stolen us from our homes, and in a strange land reduced us to slavery...It had given me a view of my wretched condition, without the remedy. It opened my eyes to the horrible pit, but to no ladder upon which to get out" (Douglass Paragraph 9).
- After getting one of the newspapers and seeing the words "the abolition of slavery", Douglass thought, " From this time I understood the words abolition and abolitionist, and always drew near when that word was spoken, expecting to hear something of importance to myself and fellow-slaves. The light broke in upon me by degrees" (Douglass Paragraph 10).
