The answer is C. "For of all slaveholders with whom I have ever met, religious slaveholders are the worst." This is an example of a characteristic of a slave narrative because it is autobiographical and told by a slave. In this case, it is Frederick Douglass from Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass.

Hope this helps!
