Why were signatures on the Declaration of Independence a risky venture?
liraira [26]
Signing this document was dangerous. To sign the Declaration of Independence meant that the signers were living on borrowed time. But, freedom meant sacrifice, even the sacrifice of their lives. So, even with the threat of death hanging over their heads, they signed this marvelous and bold document. They were now “marked men.”

What these men had done was considered as “high treason” by the king. “The penalty for high treason was: To be hanged by the head until unconscious. Then cut down and revived. Then disembowled and beheaded.

Which of the following describes African American social conditions, according to King?
In-s [12.5K]

ace solo 50 años, en Estados Unidos, los negros, ese era su nombre, no afroamericanos, eran linchados por fanáticos blancos. En los Estados del Sur, el Ku Klux Klan quemaba sus propiedades y bombardeaba sus iglesias, y las cruces de esta organización racista ardían amenazantes por las noches; la segregación racial se practicaba en universidades y escuelas, en las estaciones de autobuses y trenes todavía había salas separadas para las dos razas, también estaban segregados los lavabos públicos. La abrumadora mayoría blanca, algo que también pertenece ya al pasado, mantenía a los negros como ciudadanos de segunda violentando los derechos humanos y la doctrina de la libertad sobre la que se había construido el país; la policía utilizaba la máxima brutalidad e incluso el crimen contra los negros; eran frecuentes las desapariciones de luchadores por los derechos civiles mientras hacían campaña por Estados sureños como Alabama y Misisipi, que luego aparecían torturados y asesinados, a manos de los mismos sheriffs encargados de mantener el orden. Un negro había muerto de­sangrado en Alabama porque el conductor, blanco, de la ambulancia que acudió a la llamada se negó a recogerle.
