chapter 8 to page 40
as i read this, i began to feel lost. so i read it again and i only got so much information out of it. the only parts i really remember where when he was sent to Baltimore and he learned to read. then he couldn't go back to just being a slave because now he knew how bad his life was. then he kept taking about how his gift to read was more like a curse because if he thought about his situation he would get depressed. some where in here he talks about how he should have killed him self or gotten himself killed, that just gives you an idea on how much he hated every thing about being a slave. when his new master died he was auctioned back off and was sold back to his old owners brother. he is a mean old drunk but he dies anyways and Fredrick runs away in fear of being auctioned again. thats what i got out of it.
