Read this excerpt from Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, an American Slave.

My Dear Friend:

You remember the old fable of "The Man and the Lion," where the lion complained that he should not be so misrepresented "when the lions wrote history."

I am glad the time has come when the "lions write history." We have been left long enough to gather the character of slavery from the involuntary evidence of the masters. One might, indeed, rest sufficiently satisfied with what, it is evident, must be, in general, the results of such a relation, without seeking farther to find whether they have followed in every instance.

In this allusion, the lion symbolizes _____.



slavery in general

freedom in general

the slave

the slavemaster

In this allusion, the lion symbolizes the slave. The passage makes reference to general slavery, ruling that out as the correct answer. It also states "such a relation," that being the one between the slave and slavemaster, ruling out freedom in general. The identifying information to support "the slave" being the correct answer is "We have been left long enough to gather the character of slavery..."

Answer:

the slave
