Which two parts of this excerpt from Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl by Harriet Ann Jacobs best reflect the theme that slavery disrupted marriage and family structures? (Choice) My lover was an intelligent and religious man. Even if he could have obtained permission to marry me while I was a slave, (choice) the marriage would give him no power to protect me from my master. (Choice) It would have made him miserable to witness the insults I should have been subjected to. And then, (Choice) if we had children, I knew they must " follow the condition of the mother." (Choice) What a terrible blight that would be in the heart of a free, intelligent father! For his sake, I felt that I ought not to link his fate with my own unhappy destiny.

    Life of a Slave Girl is an autobiography written in 1861, it is the first book written by a former slave in America, and it is focused to the suffering of female slaves, how they were denied education and were separated from their families.

    The correct answer is:

    The marriage would give him no power to protect me from my master. If we had children, I knew they "follow the condition of the mother"

    In Life of a Slave Girl we are shown how the family you were born into, determined your destiny and status and how Linda (the main character) kept her children hidden for seven years.
