Answer:

B. It gets the audience to start thinking about whether the Declaration of Independence was beneficial for the slaves.

Explanation:

According to the Declaration of Independence, <em>all men were created equal. </em>However, if all men were created equal, what is the explanation for the existence of slaves? Slaves were not equal; they were not even considered fully human, but rather only three fifths of a man. They did not have the same rights (or any rights for that matter) as the white man; they had to work for no salary or else they would be killed; they were disposable for the white man.

So through his series of questions he is trying to make his readers realize that, although quite beneficial for white people, the Declaration of Independence was in no way beneficial for slaves as well.

NO RIGHT OR WRONG (as long as it makes sense)
Montano1993 [528]

Differences in strength, hormones, body structure, bone structure. Like when you draw a man figure, the body is usually a rectangle but when you draw a female, the body is an upside down triangle. Hormones like estrogen, only women have. Similarities are intelligence, appearance. Women and Men are treated differently, especially in the work place, because they used to be seen as lower class and we are thought of not being able to do some of the obs that men do, like manual labor because women don't have the same muscle mass or upper body strength as men do but men are also seen as not being able to do some jobs that women do, especially in households, because they don't have motherly instincts or they can't cook as well as women can.
