Five score years ago, a great American, in whose symbolic shadow we stand today, signed the Emancipation Proclamation. This mome

ntous decree came as a great beacon light of hope to millions of Negro slaves who had been seared in the flames of withering injustice. (1) It came as a joyous daybreak to end the long night of their captivity. (2) But 100 years later, the Negro still is not free. One hundred years later, the life of the Negro is still sadly crippled by the manacles of segregation and the chains of discrimination. (3) Malcolm X is a Negro. (4) One hundred years later, the Negro is still languished in the corners of American society and finds himself an exile in his own land. And so we've come here today to dramatize a shameful condition. -"I Have a Dream" by Martin Luther King, Jr. Choose the sentence that does not belong in the paragraph. [Give the number.] A) sentence marked 1
B) sentence marked 2
C) sentence marked 3

polet [3.4K]

Answer:

It was the first state-chartered university in the United States for educating not only the wealthy.

Explanation:

The University of Georgia, founded on January 27, 1785, in Athens, Georgia, was the first state-chartered university of the US. Because of this, it is often called the birthplace of the American system of public higher education. It was incorporated by Georgia General Assembly, Georgia's state legislature, which gave the University of Georgia's Academic senate (the governing body of some colleges and universities) resources needed for the establishment of a college or seminary for learning. Many considered that educated citizenry was absolutely necessary for free government and that the government must make education available to all of its citizens, the wealthy and the poor alike.

One of the themes in the drama My children My Africa is the generation clash​
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Apartheid, Race, and Human Connection

In My Children! My Africa!, Athol Fugard shows how the apartheid regime reserved wealth and power for white people by dividing South African society along a racial line and ruthlessly exploiting the Black majority. But the racial divide also serves another purpose: it geographically, socially, and politically separates groups of people from one another, in order to try and prevent white people from recognizing non-white people’s humanity and fighting for social equality.

According to Jefferson, what is the source of a government’s authority?the consent of the peopletraditionmilitary forcea strong,
Ghella [55]

The correct answer is A: the consent of the people.

Jefferson makes it very clear that the source of a government's authority is the consent of the people. He uses the phrase "consent of the governed," which means the people (since they are the ones who are governed).

He does not believe a government's authority comes from tradition, the military, or a leader.
