#1) How are they similar to "the slaves of political parties"?

Answer: Slaves wanted to be trusted by their overseers because this often would grant them privileges that other slaves did not have.

#2) Why does Douglass make this comparison?

Answer: Slaves would seek with great care to please their overseers to gain their trust, just as office-seekers in the political parties seek to please and deceive the people.

I hope it helps, Regards.

In Snow-Bound, where does the speaker's sense of hope come from?
zubka84 [21]

In Snow Bound the authors sense of hope came from his family

Explanation:

This is a long narrative poem written by John Greenleaf Whittier recalling the incidents that happened during a snow storm. In this poem he describes how his family was hit by snow storm and then eventually snowbound and the consequences which caused them to be shut off from the entire world.

At first when the snow storm hailed the family was threatened and they planned ways to clear the huge piles of snow from their house but as days passed on it became more severe. The family started to read stories, remain calm and they found the situation much pleasing and they started enjoying the snow rather than being depressed. They gathered the hope that they would remain alive but it was no so and it was only the author and his brother who survived
