Answer: A) to show how slavery can destroy the deepest of human bonds

Explanation: Haven't read the source material but A makes most sense. B doesn't work because Douglass talked about slavery's detrimental effects and was sympathetic to the plight of slaves and their fear. C contradicts the question and D is irrelevant.
