I believe the answer is: <span> to support the righteous notion that John Brown was condemned because he chose to risk being vilified for defending impoverished, helpless people rather than protecting the wealthy and politically well-connected

Emerson implied that the powerful would and the wealthy would always make various attempts to discredit the figure that advocated for a condition that is not aligned with them. And people are easily influenced by those attempt since the powerful control the flow of information.</span>

The most likely reason why Emerson included this quote in his speech is that Emerson wanted to highlight the hypocrisy of society, and its treatment of John Brown. He wants to motivate people to think about the injustice of their condemnation of John Brown. Emerson argues that Brown was so persecuted because he decided to defend the interests of the poor. He argues that if Brown had instead defended the interests of the rich, he would not have gotten in trouble, as it is usually the rich who make decisions on morality and righteousness.

How has the inuit's way of life change
Ksju [112]
<span>The rapid social changes that have taken place in the Canadian Arctic over the past 20 to 30 years have created a host of challenges and dilemmas for young Inuit. The members of this younger generation are coming of age during a period of fundamental change in northern society. A previously nomadic population has been concentrated into centralized settlements and towns, resulting in population growth and increased economic security. More Inuit are exposed to southern values through travel, schooling, television and radio. Because of all these changes, young people have grown not only more autonomous but have been able to delay the acceptance of adult roles and responsibilities. As a result the patterning and sequencing of traditional Inuit life stages has altered significantly, creating a prolonged adolescent life stage that has up until now been absent in Inuit tradition.</span>
