![]() Douglass had never gone to school, and he was very sensitive about not having any training in public speaking. This wasn't just because of stage fright. At first, Douglass didn't want to stand up and tell his story. ![]() Garrison starts out by telling us about the first time he heard Frederick Douglass speak in public, at an anti-slavery convention.This sort of paradox gives us a sense of Douglass's problem: in order to prove that he wrote the book on his own, he needs the help of a white guy to say that he did. ![]() William Lloyd Garrison's preface is there to help Douglass prove that he wrote the book on his own.

REM sleep is the only time when our brain is completely devoid of the anxiety-triggering molecule noradrenaline. REM-sleep dreaming appears to take the painful sting out of difficult, even traumatic, emotional episodes experienced during the day, offering emotional resolution when you awake the next morning. It’s said that time heals all wounds, but my research suggests that time spent in dream sleep is what heals. Here are the two main ways dreams help us. Recent work in my neuroscience lab and the work of other scientists has shown that dreams may have a very particular function important to our well-being. Much of this I outline in my new book, Why We Sleep: Unlocking the Power of Sleep and Dreams, which summarizes the many findings we have about sleep and its function in our lives.īut what about dreaming?

In his introduction Diamond calls it ‘Yali’s Question’, after a New Guinea native he knows (Diamond has spent a lifetime studying the birds of New Guinea) and who once asked him: ‘Why did you white people develop so much “cargo” and bring it to New Guinea and we black people have so little “cargo” of our own?’ where ‘cargo’ stands for the full panoply of marvellous inventions the white man brought with him.
