Answer:

Southern Democrats

Explanation:

The practice of lynching was particularly associated with the murder of blacks in the southern United States prior to the civil rights reforms of the 1960s.

For most years after the secession war, the white majority in the southern United States tolerated and sanctioned terrorist violence against blacks. Licensing was a way of setting terror on African Americans and affirming the superiority of white people.  

The occurrences of lynching were so constant that lawmakers had to intervene and create the anti-lynching laws, but these laws were not applauded by the entire population because Southern Democrats tried to prevent the adoption of anti-lynching laws in the 1920s?

Select the correct text in the passage.
JulijaS [17]

<u>This portion of the text shows Hobbes supported an absolute ruler:</u>

  • <em>Men are continually in competition for honour and dignity . . . and consequently amongst men there ariseth on that ground, envy, and hatred, and finally war. ... No wonder if there be somewhat else required, besides [contract], to make their agreement constant and lasting; which is a common power to keep them in awe and to direct their actions to the common benefit. </em>
  • <em> The only way to erect such a common power, as may be able to defend them from the invasion of foreigners, and the injuries of one another . . . is to confer all their power and strength upon one man, or upon one assembly of men, that may reduce all their wills, by plurality of voices, unto one will.</em>

Further detail:

Thomas Hobbes published a famous work called Leviathan in 1651.  The title "Leviathan" comes from a biblical word for a great and mighty beast.  Hobbes believed government is formed by people for the sake of their personal security and stability in society.  In Hobbes' view, once the people put a king (or other leader in power), then that leader needs to have supreme power (like a great and mighty beast).    Hobbes' view of the natural state of human beings without a government held that people are too divided and too volatile as individuals -- everyone looking out for his own interests.  So for security and stability, authority and the power of the law needs to be in the hands of a powerful ruler like a king or queen.  And so people willingly enter a "social contract" in which they live under a government that provides stability and security for society.
