In many situations during the 1800s when slavery was prominent we can see that education holds power in society. Slave masters were educated and due to this, they were able to exert control over the slaves on the plantation. Douglass was self-educated and was able to analyze slave behavior and see slavery occur firsthand as a slave himself.

The slave owner could be likened to the owner of the hotel in this case, and the six hundred (600) employees can be seen as the slaves. To drive it home, the cotton field could have needed to be fumigated so the slave owner told the slaves to go home until the farm is up and running again. Hundreds of years later the owner of Sandals made 600 workers redundant because of major improvements need to be undertaken at the hotel.    Examples of modern day slavery are all around us, we just need to be vigilant and see what is happening in our country and in the world.
