Truthfully surprised by the enneagram votes. At least off of his autobiography, he screams of e1 and e5. However, I'd be very much open to hearing arguments for e6. e1: Everywhere Douglass turns he brings with him a desire to reform and fix. He consistently mentions different aspects of just how broken American slave society is and his career upon being liberated is a perfect example of his strive to restore justice and order. He also very much represents 1s fear of being morally corrupted and for that reason consistently tries to continue his path with reading to ensure that the evils of slavery can't overtake his mind once more. And unlike an e6, who very much respect external rules, Douglass is motivated by internal ideals. e5: Douglass has an insatiable desire to learn. From the moment he was taught to read he tried to place himself in opportunities to continue his studies, and throughout his novel he displays many Ni-dom traits that can also be seen in his novel (vivid metaphors, detached experiences from reality). I think Douglass's motivations lie slightly more in an e1 than e5 but both make sense.
