Which sentence in this excerpt from the Declaration of Independence indicates that the colonists did not wish to remain hostile

toward Great Britain in the future? In every stage of these Oppressions We have Petitioned for Redress in the most humble terms: Our repeated Petitions have been answered only by repeated injury. A Prince whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a Tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a free people. Nor have We been wanting in attentions to our Brittish brethren. We have reminded them of the circumstances of our emigration and settlement here. We have appealed to their native justice and magnanimity, and we have conjured them by the ties of our common kindred to disavow these usurpations, which, would inevitably interrupt our connections and correspondence. They too have been deaf to the voice of justice and of consanguinity. We must, therefore, acquiesce in the necessity, which denounces our Separation, and hold them, as we hold the rest of mankind, Enemies in War, in Peace Friends.

Answer:

The answer is indeed the last sentence of the excerpt: We must, therefore, acquiesce in the necessity, which denounces our Separation, and hold them, as we hold the rest of mankind, Enemies in War, in Peace Friends.

Explanation:

This excerpt starts by stating that Britain's relationship with America has become unbearable. It claims that America's appeals to Britain's kindness and magnanimity have been ignored by the latter. It is thus the duty of America to declare itself a free country. The last sentence, however, brings a tone of benevolence - probably the same benevolence America expected, but never received - when it states there is no need for hostility. If Britain wants there to be war, then the two countries shall be enemies. If peace is to be had, then they shall be friends. It is that simple. America will not permanently view Britain as its rival - that will only happen if extremely necessary, but it is not wished for.

Is this sentence an example of direct or indirect characterization? "Knox found that his warrior instinct had abandoned him." Ba
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

The sentence "Knox found that his warrior instinct had abandoned him" is an example of an indirect characterization.

Based on the author's characterization Henry Knox is a coward.

Explanation:

Henry Knox was the US secretary of war when the yellow fever plague struck, president George Washington put him in charge of the government and asked him to report to him regarding the spread of the disease.

However Henry Knox fled from the city after a few days in fear of the disease, and the author's slightly mocking tone suggests that his behavior was cowardly.

Indirect characterization is used to indicate what a character is like by describing their actions, appearance or speech. In describing the thoughts and actions of Henry Knox the author uses indirect characterization.

Why did Mississippi likely make it illegal to promote racial equality??
n200080 [17]
Anti-miscegenation laws were a part of American law since before the United States was established and remained so until ruled unconstitutional in 1967 by the U.S Supreme  Cort in Loving v.Virginia . The term miscegenation was the American Civil War, by American journalists to discredit the abolitionist movement by stirring up debate over the prospect of interracial marriage after the abolition of slavery. In those of the original Thirteen Colonies that became states and enacted such laws, they were enacted as state law in the early 18th century; a century or more after the.complete racialism of slavery.
