In the middle of the story, Chinua Achebe relates the circumstances surrounding the marriage of Chike's parents in order to provide us some sort of context for Chike's seemingly strange habits.

Accordingly, Chike and his family live in a traditional Nigerian village where children are regarded 'as the common responsibility of all.' One day, thinking to do him a kindness, a neighbor lady offers Chike, then four years old, a piece of yam.

What occured after Susan B. Anthony gave her speech on this subject: Is It a Crime for a U.S. Citizen not to Vote?
valkas [14]

Answer:

The correct answer is A. Anthony was arrested for trying to vote in 1872.

Explanation:

Susan B. Anthony was an American suffragette and civil rights activist. She was an advocate in the fight for women's suffrage in the United States.   From 1854 she started working full-time for women's rights. She gained a reputation as an ardent speaker and passionate writer. In 1869 she became the president of the National Woman's Suffrage Association, an organization promoting women's suffrage.

In November 1872, she voted with about fourteen other women in the then presidential elections, with the regulators approving her putting her vote in the ballot box. She was subsequently arrested and sentenced in 1873 to a $100 fine and trial costs. She never paid a cent of the fine and the government never made much effort to collect it. But she did go to jail voluntarily.
