Answer:

The Quakers rejected slavery on the grounds that it contradicted the Christian concept of brotherhood.

Explanation:

The Quakers are a religious movement that originated among Christian English dissenters in the mid-17th century. At the end of the 1600s, many Quaker immigrants emigrated to North America, where William Penn founded Pennsylvania.

Quakers imagine that there is something of God within every human being, which, like an inner light, can guide one. The movement emphasizes that each person must find his or her own way to God, that God exists within every human being, and that the personal experience of God is the only guidance a human can have. Therefore, as God lived in every human, even in African-Americans, men were all equal and as a consequence brothers under God. This religious view, therefore, made them reject slavery during the 19th Century.

Why do we celebrate Veterans Day
alina1380 [7]
We celebrate Veterans Day to give thanks to those who serve/served for us in the armed forces. It gives temperance to those who have fallen in battle, and it “good luck” and gratitude to those who are fighting/volunteered for us. Veterans Day is the anniversary of when the armistice was signed. The armistice ended the World Was 1 hostilities between the Allied nations and Germany in 1918. For that reason, the day is dedicated to veterans as a thank you.
