Answer:

Indeed, to say that Cabeza de Vaca the famous Spanish explorer and the others who survived the expedition "had been so utterly transformed" by their experience is not far from the truth.

For example, we are told that with excitement they started their expedition to discover "the New World" hoping to find gold and settle, little did they know that they will fall into slavery.

Consider, for those who survived they saw what it meant; the pain of dying, after only 242 men out of over 600 managed to reach Apalachee Bay. Further into their journey due to rough seas only two boats with 40 survivors were left and finally 4 out of 600 men that started the expedition were alive. At this point, the 4 survivors became subjected to slavery by Native Americans. It took about 10 years before Cabeza de Vaca could return to Mexico after their initial departure.

Why is the Declaration of Independence still used today as the basis of aruguments? Is it a moral judgement? Is so can you pleas
VARVARA [1.3K]
The Declaration of Independence is still used as an argument today because it makes several statements about equality and morality that are the basis for much of modern society. The section that most people will remember, the part that states that all people deserve life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness is still applicable today.

Just to list an example of one way that the Declaration of Independence can be used as an argument, the aforementioned section can easily be used to justify equality. If everyone deserves to be able to live happily, doesn't that mean everyone, including people of different genders, races, and nationalities? This excerpt is from Martin Luther King Jr.'s famous "I Have a Dream" speech:
"<span>In a sense we have come to our nation's capital to cash a check. When the architects of our republic wrote the magnificent words of the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence, they were signing a promissory note to which every American was to fall heir. This note was a promise that all men, yes, black men as well as white men, would be guaranteed the unalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness."

The Declaration of Independence can be used as a moral argument. Morally, most Americans believe that everyone deserves the same rights and treatment regardless of their background. It cannot be objectively stated that everyone deserves the same chance at life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, but most people will agree that this is true because of their morals.

Hope this helps!</span>

tatyana61 [14]

The quotation is used as a comparison to how much they, African Americans, still struggle to get simple things such as getting a cup of coffee at a lunch counter or getting a newspaper at a local news stand , as if they were in a time before automobiles and buses , back when African Americans were enslaved and treated unfairly . It's using the metaphor as a way to show how little they've progressed through out the decades.
