The first Continental Congress met from Sept 5-Oct 26, 1774. It comprised of 55 representatives from 12 territories. They declared The Declaration of Rights and Grievances a request to the king to revive freedoms and privileges they considered they automatically regarded as British captions.

The Congress had three intentions: to form a declaration of colonial powers, to recognize British parliaments demolition of those rights, and to implement a strategy that would persuade England to reestablish those rights.

The affiliates accepted to blacklist British gains and succeeded resolutions supporting colonial rights. They also favored conference over in May 1775, if the British did not renew their plans.

In revenge, the King and Lord North of England determined to punish and undermine the colonies. They obstructed colony entrance to the North Atlantic netting range.

How did the palmer raids ignore americans' civil right and liberties??​
lbvjy [14]

Answer: A good example is this...

The Palmer Raids were a series of raids conducted in November 1919 and January 1920 during the First Red Scare by the United States Department of Justice under the administration of President Woodrow Wilson to capture and arrest suspected radical leftists, mostly Italian and Eastern European immigrants and especially anarchists and communists, and deport them from the United States. The raids particularly targeted Italian immigrants and Eastern European Jewish immigrants with suspected radical leftist ties, with particular focus on Italian anarchists and immigrant leftist labor activists. The raids and arrests occurred under the leadership of Attorney General A. Mitchell Palmer, with 3,000 arrested. Though 556 foreign citizens were deported, including a number of prominent leftist leaders, Palmer's efforts were largely frustrated by officials at the U.S. Department of Labor, which had authority for deportations and objected to Palmer's methods.
