Douglass states, “This battle with Mr. Covey was the turning point in my slave career as a slave. It rekindled the few expiring embers of freedom, and revived within me a sense of my own manhood” (2207). In Peter C.

His forceful resistance proved no less powerfully liberating than his literacy. Douglass gained new knowledge that would help him defeat being whipped.
