What the author's immediate purpose in writing "What to the Slave is the Fourth of July" most likely was A. to persuade readers about the unjust treatment of African Americans.
Maybe at the time people didn't think they were treating African Americans unjustly. Well, the author wanted to make them know that what they were doing is wrong and they should change it.

Answer:

The correct answer is A. The author's immediate purpose in writing "What to the Slave is the Fourth of July" was to persuade readers about the unjust treatment of African Americans.

Explanation:

The author of this speech was Frederick Douglass, an abolitionist, speaker, writer and statesman who after escaping slavery in Maryland, became a national leader of the abolitionist movement in Massachusetts and New York, gaining prestige by his oratory and critical writings against slavery.

In this speech, he makes an analysis of the constitutional basis of slavery in the United States, establishing that the guarantees of the Constitution, the very basis of American society, were an insult to the African-American population, since the rights enunciated in there were not available for them.

It tells, on the other hand, the unfair and unequal treatment of African-Americans, both from the government and from society itself.

I've been following Richard's work, and my assessment is that he finishes on time, pays attention to details, and often comes up
Sedbober [7]

The answer is A Evaluation

The description talks about Richard's work, it resembles a manager's evaluation -mostly during training processes in some jobs-

Incorrect answers:

B Experience

Experience cannot be used as the correct word because all the information is related to Richard's work if in any case, a person would use experience, the expression should be in my experience working with Richard...

C) Guess

A lot of precise and concise elements are enlisted in this description which does not leave any space for expectations

D) Trial

Trial can only be used in a legal context and we do not have any evidence that this is a legal situation.
