We don't exactly know why, but it probably has something to do with Mars figuring out that Maniac is like the other white kids. He's brave and kind, and so he and Mars find common ground out in the early-morning streets. They stop racing each other and end up running alongside each other instead:

Morning after morning it happened this way—the two of them dovetailing at an intersection, and, without the slightest hitch in stride, cruising off together. Though each face showed no awareness of the other, they were in fact minutely sensitive to each other. 

This is just what Maniac needs: someone to run with him and to make sure he's not alone. And this is also what Mars needs: someone who challenges him, someone he knows he can't beat with some trash talk and just a little effort. It's even better that he and Maniac don't love each other from the get go: they earn their friendship.

        its hard for some people to get along and that’s the case for douglass and canot. most of the time when people do not agree with each other its because they have different presperctives, and that is the case here.

captain canot was never a slave so but he was a slaver and a slave ship captain and just like the slave master's he tought it was it was totally normal, he used captain conot is a cruel man who enjoys whipping slaves but never   got whipped he saw it has a destiny for the slave to be a slave and the slaver to be a slaver   but douglass has suffered whoppings cut   even for no reason sometimes. douglass believed that slavery was not natural to black people, they need to study and learn how to read and write. he knew they have rights.

it was really not the captain’s fault he was just brainwashed by the system and when your brainwashed by the system its hard not to be brainwashed. but the reason douglass wants this is because he has suffered he knows how it feels and will do anything to stop that.
