The answer is below
Explanation:
1. The social norm in the plantation particularly the Wye House plantation in Maryland is considered to be a slavery environment, which was full of cruelty, with slaves working too hard and being treated unfairly. A simple mistake may lead to slaves been transferred to another plantation in a faraway state.
This was evident in the story told by Frederick Douglass in one of his autobiographies about Colonel Lloyd and his encounter with one of his boy slaves. Similarly, Frederick Douglass was also sent away from the Wye House Plantation to work on another farm in Baltimore.
2. At Baltimore, slavery was still rampant during his time, as he was serving as a slave. Though not as cruel as that of Wye House Plantation he was still subject to heavy work. It is in Baltimore he began to learn how to read thanks to the religious undertone in his Master's house and plantation. He started learning how to read the Bible there. He eventually ran away from Baltimore because of slavery.
3. At New Bedford, the social norm here is that the people are generally considered free and living better. There is a high standard of living in the town. Even Federick observed that some laborers are living a better life than many slave owners in the Southern part of the United States at the time. In New Bedford, Massachusetts, the social norm is also considered to be the absence of slavery.
