Read the excerpt from Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass. What is Frederick Douglass' point of view about Baltimore based on the following sentences?

"Their names were Peter, Isaac, Rich, and Jake. These were esteemed very highly by the other slaves, and looked upon as the priveleged ones of the plantation; for it was no small affair, in the eyes of the slaves, to be allowed to see Baltimore.

a. Baltimore is a place slaves rarely got to see, so those who did were held in a high regard.

b. Baltimore is a fantastic place, and if the slaves go there they can be free.

c. Baltimore was where all of the masters would meet to sell their slaves.

d. Baltimore was cursed by the slaves, because they could never see it.
