Answer:

It means that being friendly towards oppressors will not have you get your rights. You cannot sit and wait for people to give you or others equal rights. The only proper way to get them to stop is by force, to hit them where it hurts. You could add the protests/BLM movement in as an example, the fact that policemen who kill innocent Black men and women typically walk free or get a slap on the wrist unless people demand justice.

The quote was made by civil rights activist Thurgood Marshall, the first Black man who served at the Supreme Court.

A relevant topic of early US history is the Declaration of Independence, which took place on July 4, 1776.

<h3 /><h3>What motivated the declaration of US Independence?</h3>

The United States was divided into thirteen colonies under English rule, which exploited resources and wealth from the American territory, in addition to instituting the slavery of Africans, which generated dissatisfaction in the settlers who relied on Enlightenment thoughts to start the American Revolution, in search of the end of colonization.

It is important to emphasize the importance of the Enlightenment for the establishment of ideals of freedom and the achievement of rights for American citizens. Some of the philosophers who influenced the American Revolution were:

  • Montesquieu
  • Jean-Jacques Rousseau
  • John Locke

Montesquieu's ideas were related to the separation of powers between the legislative, executive and judiciary, generating a greater balance between government power, reducing centralization and increasing democracy.

Jean-Jacques Rousseau developed the theory of the social contract, to maintain order and the development of society, as a form of agreement between all citizens for the preservation of equality in society.

John Locke's ideals were referring to the natural rights of individuals, for him, all individuals have the right to life, liberty and private property.

Therefore, the dissatisfaction of the settlers and the events that occurred in Europe in the period influenced the ideals and values for American independence, fighting the War of Independence with the victory of the Americans and the consolidation of the country as a federalist republic.
