Please help. What is the purpose of the text the blackness and why did the author write it?

Douglass did not write this text to reflect on his personal development but rather to argue that slavery should be abolished. In the Narrative, he explicitly and implicitly responds to the positions of people who supported or were indifferent to slavery. Through the episodes he tells, Douglass conveys his position that slavery was terrible (not just mildly unpleasant) for slaves, that it corrupted (not helped) slave owners, and that as an institution, it was abhorrent (not necessary). It is worth noting that this last position is the hardest to trace and analyze.
