I think that Douglass was a very successful and strong slave. He was very brave speaking in front of the white audiences also. Even though Douglass was already a free man, his speak about "a degree of freedom" had an effect on the people who were still under slavery and maybe the speak could put an influence on them.
I think that when Douglass began to talk out in front of many white people it made a effect on him, because he realized that him and the white people were both equal. When he said that he had a Degree of Freedom he began to see that he had more privileges then the average african american or slave at that time being.
