Read this excerpt from Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, an American Slave: After the valuation, then came the division. I have no language to express the high excitement and deep anxiety which were felt among us poor slaves during this time. Our fate for life was now to be decided. We had no more voice in that decision than the brutes among whom we were ranked. A single word from the white men was enough — against all our wishes, prayers, and entreaties — to sunder forever the dearest friends, dearest kindred, and strongest ties known to human beings. Which cruel realities regarding slavery does Douglass describe? Slaves were sold to cruel masters and treated like animals. Slaves were treated like property and separated from loved ones. Slaves were sold to white people who also bought their families. Salves were treated cruelly but were not separated from loved ones.

Answers

The correct answer for the question that is being presented above is this one: "Slaves were treated like property and separated from loved ones." The cruel realities regarding slavery that Douglass describe is that Slaves were treated like property and separated from loved ones.

The correct answer is B.

In this excerpt from his "Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, an American Slave," Douglass tells the reader about the cruel separations slaves had to go through when they were sold.

Slaves were sold like animals or property. They had no saying in who was to buy them and could not oppose whatsover. This meant that buyers could chose to buy one person, separating him from everything he loved, and the slave would have no choice but to go with him.
