New religious sects were on the rise in Europe. In England, William Penn attended Oxford where he joined the Society of Friends (Quakers). These new sects were treated badly, and the Quakers received the worst treatment of all. They were thrown in prison for refusing to obey any law that disrupted their religion and they refused to pay to support the state religion. The only way to escape such treatment was to go to America. William Penn's father was an Admiral and King Charles II had owed him a sum of money. Admiral Penn was dead so William Penn asked King Charles II give him a tract of land in payment of the debt. King Charles II granted him much of present-day Pennsylvania, Delaware and New Jersey.

In your local newspaper, you read an editorial supporting a local building initiative that will cost the town millions of dollar
Mrrafil [7]

D. that she may profit from the building project

Look at the evidence within the question information. The author has 20 years of experience in construction and owns a local construction company. So if the city or town is considering a building initiative that will cost the town millions of dollars, the author of the editorial quite possibly hopes to bid for some of that construction work. It would be very good for her business.

Now, the fact that a construction company owner favors the building initiative doesn't mean her views should be rejected simply because of her position in the construction industry. If her views are valid and provide solid arguments in favor of the project, those views should be considered on their merits. At the same time, perspectives from other local citizens should be considered too, in terms of environmental impact of the project, costs and affordability, how the building initiative will benefit residents of the community, etc.

Trava [24]
Black women not only provided materials and supplies for the soldiers by joining the workforce.
It also brought about cultural change for the African American community. It allowed them to move northward during the great migration.
It brought about a new age where they could be prosperous rather than living low paying jobs in the south.
