If the lineal descendants of Ham are alone to be scripturally enslaved, it is certain that slavery at the south must soon become unscriptural; for thousands are ushered into the world, annually, who, like myself, owe their existence to white fathers, and those fathers most frequently their own masters. What is one effect of Douglass's allusion to the biblical story of the sons of Ham in his memoir?

It acknowledges the fact that enslaved people have been cursed by God and gives the text its bitter tone.

It suggests that Douglass does not view the Bible as an important text and makes his anger towards enslavers clear.

It refutes the notion that enslaved people are the descendants of Ham and makes readers view Douglass as deeply cynical.

It establishes Douglass as a well-read, educated man whose critical view of enslavement is a reasonable one.

I do t understand the question, please elaborate

Explanation:

the speech this question is referring to is president kennedy's special message to the congress on urgent national needs, may 25, 1961

kennedy responds in a very direct and concrete way to those thinking that communism is a positive system:

"yet their aggression is more often concealed than open. they have fired no missiles; and their troops are seldom seen. they send arms, agitators, aid, technicians and propaganda to every troubled area. but where fighting is required, it is usually done by others--by guerrillas striking at night, by assassins striking alone--assassins who have taken the lives of four thousand civil officers in the last twelve months in vietnam alone--by subversives and saboteurs and insurrectionists, who in some cases control whole areas inside of independent nations." (kennedy)

president kennedy presents communism as cowardly, as a hidden and treacherous weapon that strikes from the shadows like thieves, he represents the system as not even being capable of showing and open and overt attack or confrontation. to finish up the response, he expresses that the system attacks even a country's idependence and freedom.
