What does Douglass want his speech to focus on?​

In this Independence Day oration, Douglass sought to persuade those people to embrace what was then considered the extreme position of abolition. He also sought to change minds about the abilities and intelligence of African Americans.

Frederick Douglass 's intended audience was white people, mainly in the north, as he wanted to convince them of the damaging effects of slavery and to convince them that slavery should be abolished.

I hope this helped, pls consider giving me brainliest :)

because each is self-sufficient.  

sing because that is what they are doing in the sentence

explanation:

the simple predicate is the main verb in the predicate that tells what the subject does. example: my father fixed the dryer. read each sentence. draw a line under the complete predicate.
