Answer:

Civil Disobedience by Henry David Thoreau.

Explanation:

Henry David Thoreau's essay "Civil Disobedience" was a result of his arrest after he refused to pay the toll tax of $1. This refusal was his way of protesting against the Mexican war and the practice of slavery which resulted in his arrest. The experience of being in prison led him to write about it in his essay where he stressed upon the importance of asserting one's rights even if it means going against the law, if one views the laws as unjust. With this belief, he protested against the practice of slavery and the war, for he believed that they are discriminatory against a particular race. And in practice of this protest, he refused to pay the toll tax fee that funds the war. This arrest eventually led to the production of this literary work.

How do la's mother's actions set the plot of the story in motion? Use evidence to support your response
SVEN [57.7K]

Hello. You did not enter the text to which this question refers, which makes it impossible for it to be answered. However, when searching your question on the internet, I was able to find another question like yours, which showed that the text in question is entitled "Blue", written by Francesca Lia Block. If that's your case, I hope the answer below can help you.

La's mother decides to leave, before La can even say goodbye to her. The mother's departure changes the whole emotional state and daily life of the family. This attitude becomes a major trauma for La's father and for the life of La herself, who feels extremely sad and confused. The impact of La's mother's departure is what moves the plot of the story, because all of La's actions, all the motivations, the conflicts that she gets involved in and even the appearance of Blue, a strange creature that tries to console La, happen as a result of her mother's actions.
