Best Answer

Frederick Douglass went from light-hearted to wretched and gloomy when he learned to read. He began to look at and examine slavery, as he grew more educated. Whereas initially, he had simply viewed it as the condition he happened to be in, he now knew the practice to be abhorrent, and resented the people, no matter how kind they might seem to be, for participating in the system of slavery.

How did Mrs. Auld change and why did she change?

Her warm-hearted actions towards Douglass cease after she is scolded by her husband for teaching Douglass the ABC's. She loses the view of slaves being human beings because she is stricken with the fear that the slaves will revolt and enslave the White's if they ever became literate because they would be discontent with their slave lifestyle.
