History

Answer:

Historians say that Henry's “Liberty or Death” speech helped convince those in attendance to begin preparing Virginia troops for war against Great Britain. Royal Governor Lord Dunmore responded to the speech by removing gunpowder from the magazine.

Explanation:

I looked up your question online and this is what I found. It is from the first website that pops up and I'm sure your answer can be found there. Basically he said it to prove that all he wanted was independence from Britain and he was willing to die for that liberty. He was trying to convince others to join the force to support independence. I am not sure if you gave a typo saying why did he say give me liberty of death but I don't think he ever said that.

Answer:

Historians say that Henry's “Liberty or Death” speech helped convince those in attendance to begin preparing Virginia troops for war against Great Britain.

Explanation:

“Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty”—Henry burst from his imaginary chains and grasped an ivory letter opener—“or give me death!” As he uttered these final words, he plunged the letter opener toward his chest, mimicking a knife blow to the heart." this is the quote from which he said his famous line. Royal Governor Lord Dunmore responded to the speech by removing gunpowder from the magazine.

What is the difference between slavery tolerated because of "necessity" and slavery affirmed as a "moral right"?
malfutka [58]

Slavery tolerated because of "necessity" means that you do not really want to do it, but you think you must do it. An example is when you have a farm and you need people to work on it. The trouble behind this scenario is that your farm isn’t making money to pay your farm helpers their proper wages, so you resort to slavery. In this case, you do not need money for salaries because your farm is doing well to keep your slaves clothed and fed.

Slavery affirmed as a "moral right" is when you think it is your right to be the master and the slaves deserves to be slaves.
