Frederick Douglass was moved to his master Colonel Lloyd's brother's house in Baltimore, Maryland when he was about 7 or 8 years old. His mistress, Colonel Lloyd's brother's wife, was very kind to Frederick. She started to teach him the alphabet, but her husband forbade it. Plus, it was illegal to teach a slave to read. In short, the woman who taught him to read was his mistress in Baltimore, Maryland.

Rather poorly, or so Frederick Douglass would have us believe, and I do tend to believe him. In a pinch, purchase the softback version of:Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass: An American Slave, Written by Himselfby Frederick DouglassThe work is tightly written, short in length, shocking in nature and essential reading for any man or woman possessing some manner of life-affirming ethical construct.
Stanton was a firm supporter of woman AND rights for African- Americans. She worked alongside Frederick Douglass for both causes.She helped slaves escape.
Frederick Douglas was married twice. His first wife was an African American woman named Anna Murray. They were married while he was still being held in slavery. They had 5 children together, 4 of which lived to be adults. One of their daughters, Annie, died when she was 10. When Anna Murray died, he married a white woman named Helen Pitts. They did not have any children. Mr. Douglas said that when he married his first wife, he was honoring his mother's African American race and honored his father's white race when he married his second wife.
Helen Keller's The Story Of My Life has many differences one is that Helen Keller talks about being blind and learning what things or called. this was difficult to do because Helen Keller is dump, deaf, and blind .In Frederick Douglass's story it talked about being a slave and trying tolearn how to read and write while master Hugh's wife strongly disagrees.

Frederick Douglass was a big person in the North. Harriet Tubman was a woman who worked on the Underground Railroad. Not only did she free herself, she went back and rescued her family, including a lot of other slaves.
When Frederick Douglas was a child in Maryland, state law prohibited teaching a slave to read or write. The wife of his master secretly taught him the alphabet, and he taught himself to read.At a time when slaves were not allowed to learn how to read and write, Frederick Douglass had some very good people in his life. They ignored the law and helped him in his quest for knowledge. Initially, his masterâ??s wife, taught him to read, but after admonishments from her husband this ended. However, white boys young Frederick could play with when his chores were done, were willing to give him â??Lessonsâ?? sometimes in exchange for a biscuit he had pilfered from the kitchen. Based on these early influences and his own thirst for knowledge, Frederick became an acclaimed writer and journalist.
