his owner did not teach him he was taught from his mistress who eventually turned on him because she was corrupted by slavery. he also used resources outside of the plantation (his father was white so he had more freedom then other slaves but he was still a slave) he'd challenge (trick) little kids to teach him how to spell words so he can write.
