Bye Bye Slavery

As I finally reach the end of Frederick Douglass memoir, I felt something about the memoir went missing.  Although the story got my attention, and played with my emotions like no other book has. I concluded that the novel compares to a "bikini", as it hides the essential but what it reveals is suggestive (David Chen), because after all the effort to achieve freedom, his experience as a freeman and married man is summarized in less than 15 pages. Therefore when I finish the book I felt something was missing. To my own perspective Frederick emphasizes his experience as a slave rather than a freeman, to establish a connection with the reader , as the most intense part of the book is during his time as a slave.


It is just astonishing to see how  for Douglass the relation among his peers as one of the most important factors of his life, as he mentioned, "Our greatest concern was about separation, we dreaded that more than any thing this side of death". During his journey to become a freeman, I reflected upon many events such as, when he began working as a shipbuilder, where his people ,instead of being supportive after having shared the same experience as slaves, they behave as unsympathetic whites, where they only seek economic welfare above his people , his race, "My fellow apprentices very soon began to feel it degrading to them to work with me". In another case where he mentions," that whenever my condition was improved, instead of its increasing of my contentment, it only increased my desire to be free, and set me of plans to gain my freedom", This quote relates to me and almost everyone because every time they give us something, we want something more. 
Something that I find curious is the fact that despite the abuse , humiliation, and disrespect , Frederick refers to his past owners with such a respect despite this is his diary where supposedly he should reveal his emotions and thoughts. This shows Frederick was the real gentleman upon the white population.
The novel left me with a sense of intrigue about the future of Frederick and his new family . But What Douglass taught me will prevail in my daily life as I appreciate the privileges that god gave me.

What are the biggest benefits of being online?
The biggest benefits of being online are that you can share information not necessarly has to be photos or videos of anormal students life. Also they can interact with society and keep in touch with what is happening around the world. You can talk with your classmates, of work not necessarly social life. And the biggest advantage most of the times is free so people have more acces. Something very important is in case if any emergency online is the first to know and communicated.

What topic in the video did you most strongly identify with and why?
I identify not with the topic but more with the opinion, that you are sometimes different from who you are in real life. I am not saying that you are totally different but you have conversation with other people and maybe pic that you don't want no body to know about. Second having an online thing is like a backup of your personal life you are supported with it but it  doesn't interferes. I am not saying you take it to the other end of who you really are but be slightly different in the way you interact with other people in a positive way. Also if you have enough knowledge on how to manipulate technology you can create new relation and interact with different cultures so you learn something.

What advice you have to parents about kids and being online?
My persoanla advice for parents its to give your kis certain liberty to posses a technology advice as long as they dont abuse it. Personally i will hate that my mom had my facebook password because you maintain certain relation with your parents but it has its limits and if our parents have access to your privacy they might lost respect sometimes for you and you will lost confidence on them. In my case my mom is no my friend on facebook but in the case of someone who does it, what I recommend this parent is to sometimes check but if you see something a normal on your child have talk with him but do not mention you found that on Facebook. As a parent I recommend that you teach pros a cons of technology but do not limit them.

What topic in the video was the most unlike your own expiriences online and why?
The suicide of this little boy. First because as the child ask for help to his dad instead of his dad teaching him how to deal with this type of bullying, he taught he's son how to fight. 2 when he's sister saw him hanging from the bathroom, this settled an impression in this girls life. 3 how can this dad see hes son depressed and sad and not ask what was really happening or contact the school.4 How this little son had the same ideal as another one in school of committing suicide. This most that unlike was an impressing scene in the video
