Read this excerpt from Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, an American Slave:

After the valuation, then came the division. I have no language to express the high excitement and deep anxiety which were felt among us poor slaves during this time. Our fate for life was now to be decided. We had no more voice in that decision than the brutes among whom we were ranked. A single word from the white men was enough — against all our wishes, prayers, and entreaties — to sunder forever the dearest friends, dearest kindred, and strongest ties known to human beings.


Which two cruel realities regarding slavery does Douglass describe in this excerpt?

- being temporarily divided by job
- being treated like property
- being kept in small living quarters
- being separated from family
