Respuesta :

Answer: 1. Enslaved persons had few opportunities to travel and few experiences beyond their plantations.

Explanation:

From the Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass written by the famous anti-abolishionist himself, it is shown that people who were enslaved had very few opportunities to travel and few experiences beyond their plantations.

This was because their owners lived in constant worry that the slaves would escape from them were they given such opportunities so they limited their interactions with the outside world so they wouldn't even dream of it. Indeed there were many liberties denied the slaves so that they could be kept in bondage.

Apart from limiting their right to travel, the slave owners refused slaves the opportunity to be literate with Fredrick Douglas talking about a time when a class he had been teaching was permanently disbanded when the owners came with various weapons to stop the class.
