Answer:

  • I felt, moreover, that I had been faithful—that I was guilty of no wrong whatever, and deserved commendation rather than punishment.

Explanation:

Twelve Years a Slave is the memoir of Solomon Northup, a free dark man who was grabbed and sold into subjection. Distributed in 1853, that year in which he was freed, it covers his twelve years in slavery.  

Northup describes his life starting in New York, building up his inception and his status as a liberated individual dwelling in the North with his family. He at that point shares the subtleties encompassing his capturing and encounters inside the slave advertise, and the ensuing long stretches of bondage and subjugation he suffers until he steps onto free soil again twelve years after the fact. Through his account of situation, Northup depicts the day by day interactions between him, different slaves, and the different bosses he works under, just as explicit and broad learning of farming practices and southern traditions – revealing more insight into servitude than any course reading can.

How does Wealth in the great gatsby relate to today's world
Natalija [7]
Nearly a century after its publication, F. Scott Fitzgerald's "The Great Gatsby" remains a literary classic. One challenge it presents, though, is understanding how the Roaring '20s tale of Jay Gatsby's pursuit of wealth and romance at all costs is still relevant nearly a century later. The novel's portrayal of materialism, superficial relationships and the myths of fame and celebrity create remarkable parallels between Gatsby's world and the present day.

Materialism
Possessions and status are a key ingredient to many of the characters' lifestyles. In order to attract Daisy's interest, Gatsby defines himself by his enormous house, decadent parties and distinctive cars and clothing. Daisy, too, values materialism, as the convenience of her marriage to wealthy polo player Tom Buchanan keeps her from fully embracing Gatsby's vision for their future. High school English teacher David Dowling writes that America's continued obsession with materialism is one reason for the novel's permanence, depicting the conflict between moral values and the desire for wealth that still entangles people today.

Webster, Worcester, and Bouvier all define a citizen to be a person in the United States, entitled to vote and hold office.
BabaBlast [244]

Answer: by mentioning the idea that women are not people

Explanation:

A citizen is a person in the United states and yet women were people in the United States but still could not vote. Susan Anthony is therefore asking if women were not people as well because only that would explain why they did not have the right to vote.

In saying this she connected with the emotions of women who in being made to feel like second-class citizens did not feel like they were people.
