The contradictions that can be found in Douglass's mistress are related to her behavior towards slaves.

We can arrive at this answer because:

  • Mrs. Auld was one of Douglass' mistresses.
  • She was a very kind and benevolent to slaves.
  • This behavior was very favorable and admired by Douglass.
  • However, she began to show contradictory behavior towards slaves.
  • She started to become an angry and violent person with the slaves, which completely contradicted her behavior in the past.

Douglass explains this shift as a normal part of the devastating nature of slavery. According to him, slavery caused the suffering of blacks, while corrupting the humanity of whites.
