Answer:

Explanation:

Barbara Jordan was the first African American woman elected to be as a Texas State Senator.

On July 25, 1974, Barbara Jordan delivered a speech on Impeachment. <u>The purpose of the speech was to tell the problem that the Constitution had with the wordings. In her speech, she mentions that though the Constitution laid by Washington and Hamilton included the phrase "We, the people", they forget to include her. In a sense, that though the constitution talks about equality, equality was granted by court decision. </u>

So, the correct answer is option A.

dezoksy [38]

Answer:

Hans had to face and hide from the Nazi regime, as did the Jewish children.

Explanation:

Hans was not a Jew, but because he was against the Nazi regime, he had to hide and face him as he could, at the risk of being discovered, captured and tortured, as well as Jewish children. That's because Hans hid a son of a Jew in his home, helped the Jews he encountered, erased anti-Semitic messages hidden and did everything he could to not be captured.

We can say that the similarities between him and the Jewish children were fear, which both felt during the war.
