<h2>Answer: Abraham Lincoln </h2>

Explanation:

The seven debates between Abraham Lincoln and Stephen A. Douglas, focused on the issues of slavery, morals and values. It should be noted that at that time, <u>Lincoln was the candidate of the Republican Party for the United States Senate of Illinois, and Stephen Douglas was a senator and candidate of the Democratic Party. </u>

These debates were the first of their kind at that time, whose format was that one candidate would speak for 60 minutes, then the other candidate would speak for 90 minutes, and then the first candidate would be allowed a 30-minute reply.

These debates caused such a stir, that there is currently a model of debate based on those carried out by these two politicians in 1858.

Scilla [17]

Answer:

This is usually done by creating awareness. We are in the era of a drastic increase in social media usage so putting the issue up and creating a voice for it will ensure the matter is looked into by the relevant authorities to curb it.

There can also be raising of money in order to ensure that the victims are in a better condition and not in situations which would enable them to get oppressed.
