Answer:

A slave owner himself, President Taylor adopted some antislavery political positions. He opposed the spread of slavery to new U.S. territories.

What was the overall tone of Lewis's speech? What parts of Lewis's speech were changed? Why?
Crazy boy [7]
The overall tone of Lewis' speech was angry and strong. For some, the speech sounded too belligerent. John Lewis changed parts of his speech at the request of Martin Luther King, Jr. Lewis said he could not say no to King because King was his hero, his inspiration.
The part where Lewis said they cannot wholeheartedly support the administration's civil rights bill for it is too little and too late was removed from his revised speech.
Lewis' original speech "We will march through the South, through the heart of Dixie, the way Sherman did" was changed to "we will march with the spirit of love and with the spirit of dignity that we have shown here today"

svp [43]

Answer:

C) The Texas Bill of rights protects individual freedoms from being infringed upon by the government.

Explanation:

The Texas Bill of Rights has more positive tone, and it leverages the citizens with much the same level of protections like the US bill of Rights. However, you will find that Texas bill of right goes beyond the federal protection. And as an example, the section 3a, has been written to not allow the discrimination which is on the basis of the color, creed, race, gender or nationality. And hence, it protects the individual freedoms from being invaded by the government.  However, it can be ammended, and federalism is embodied in the Texas bill of rights.
