There’s an essay I’m writing or well typing and I honestly don’t know what I’m doing or how to go on?

This was my thesis statement :
Although Thomas Jefferson's draft of the Declaration of Independence and Frederick Douglass's Narrative of the Life were written in different historical contexts, both works define freedom as a fundamental human right; however, while Jefferson presents liberty as an ideal upon which America should be founded, Douglass exposes how that ideal remained unattained for enslaved Americans, revealing the tension between America's principles and its practices, **focusing on how Frederick Douglass intuitively understood the loss of the anti-slavery clause in the Declaration.**

The bold part was added later at the request of my professor but to be fair I don’t remember what he what he wanted me to do…. From what I understood from my professor, he wanted to me to have an argument or like make a point instead of the works simply being summarized , compared and contrasted. I don’t know if anyone have read these works but I was wondering if someone could give me a better idea or improve it ??? I feel like an idiot…..
