Read the following passage from Douglass's speech:
Let me ask, if it be not somewhat singular that, if the
Constitution were intended to be, by its framers and
adopters, a slave holding instrument, why neither slavery,
slaveholding, nor slave can be found anywhere in it. What
would be thought of an instrument, drawn up, legally drawn
up, for the purpose of entitling the city of Rochester to a
track of land, in which no mention of the land was made?
What is the purpose of this analogy?
A. To underscore the connection between the Constitution and
Douglass's speech, by showing that the same line of reasoning
appears in other settings
B. To show that Douglass is a logical thinker by showcasing a valid
critique of the Constitution and its position on slavery
C. To show that Douglass is sympathetic to the needs of landowners
but still feels strongly about the need for abolition
O D. To highlight Douglass's capacity for critical thinking by calling into
question the concept of ownership altogether, be it of land, people,
or things
