Fredrick Douglass was extremely determined to escape from slavery. On the outside he was rebellious, but he didn 't show his desire to escape until the opportune moment to escape showed itself, then his determination to escape showed. In consequence of this, it shows that Fredrick was tremendously determined to escape, if he only marginally desired to be free from the seemingly unbreakable bonds of slavery then he would have attempted a shoddy escape from slavery as soon as possible without any careful consideration of risks. Instead, Douglass was careful and precise carefully assessing the best moment to make his run, which shows that the one thing he wanted more than anything in the world was to escape from slavery.

The slaveholder would dehumanize the slave to the point where the human was no longer recognizable; instead, the slave was property. Throughout this autobiography, Frederick Douglass uses language to portray the similarities and differences between the two sides. He allows the reader to spend a day in the life of a slave to see the effects from it.
The passage, “Always Running” by Luis J. Rodriguez evokes the tone of indifference. Rodriguez demonstrates these tones through imagery. For example, at the beginning of the passage the narrator, Luis gives us background information about his living situation to set up imagery for the rest of the passage.
