Friends and fellow citizens: I stand before you tonight under indictment for the alleged crime of having voted at the last presidential election, without having a lawful right to vote. It shall be my work this evening to prove to you that in thus voting, I not only committed no crime, but, instead, simply exercised my citizen's rights, guaranteed to me and all United States citizens by the National Constitution, beyond the power of any state to deny.The preamble of the Federal Constitution says:
"We, the people of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America."

It was we, the people; not we, the white male citizens; nor yet we, the male citizens; but we, the whole people, who formed the Union. And we formed it, not to give the blessings of liberty, but to secure them; not to the half of ourselves and the half of our posterity, but to the whole people—women as well as men. And it is a downright mockery to talk to women of their enjoyment of the blessings of liberty while they are denied the use of the only means of securing them provided by this democratic-republican government—the ballot.

Question 1 of 5

Instructions:Select all the correct answers.
How does Susan B. Anthony argue that women are entitled to vote?
She states that the founding documents confer rights on all people, including women, and therefore women are entitled to vote.
She states that women who are born in the United States are automatically considered citizens and therefore have the right to vote.
She states that women already have rights, and they need the right to vote in order to protect these rights.
She states that if the Constitution can guarantee certain rights to racial and ethnic minorities, then it must give women of all races the right to vote.
She states that women have evolved since the time the Constitution was written, so they have earned more responsibility in governing the country.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: The first four options are all valid statements. The last one makes no sense, as it implies that at the time the constitution was written women were less deserving of rights than they were at the point she was writing, which would not be a point in keeping with her wider message.

30 POINTS PLUS BRAINLYEST!!!Read the poem.Song of the Open Roadby Walt WhitmanAfoot and light-hearted, I take to the open road,Healthy, free, the world before me,The long brown path before me, leading wherever I choose.Henceforth I ask not good-fortune—I myself am good-fortune;Henceforth I whimper no more, postpone no more, need nothing,Strong and content, I travel the open road. . . .From this hour, freedom!From this hour I ordain myself loos’d of limits and imaginary lines,Going where I list, my own master, total and absolute,Listening to others, and considering well what they say,Pausing, searching, receiving, contemplating,Gently, but with undeniable will, divesting myself of the holds that would hold me.I inhale great draughts of space;The east and the west are mine, and the north and the south are mine.I am larger, better than I thought;I did not know I held so much goodness.All seems beautiful to me;I can repeat over to men and women, You have done such good to me, I would do the same to you.I will recruit for myself and you as I go;I will scatter myself among men and women as I go;I will toss the new gladness and roughness among them;Whoever denies me, it shall not trouble me;Whoever accepts me, he or she shall be blessed, and shall bless me.Question 1Part AWhat is a theme of "Song of the Open Road"?Traveling is a freeing experience that allows for independence and self-reflection.Being rooted in one place doing everyday activities is better than wandering alone on the open road.Taking a vacation allows someone to spend meaningful time with friends and family.Only when people are traveling can they truly prioritize the needs of others over their own needs.Question 2Part BWhich two quotes from the poem best help Whitman develop the theme identified in Part A?"I will recruit for myself and you as I go; / I will scatter myself among men and women as I go;""Pausing, searching, receiving, contemplating, / Gently, but with undeniable will, divesting myself of the holds that would hold me.""I can repeat over to men and women, You have done such good to me, I would do the same to you.""From this hour, freedom! / From this hour I ordain myself loos’d of limits and imaginary lines,"
