No taxation without representation means American colonist were taxed by the British Parliament and in return Americans will be given the rights to elect representatives.

Explanation:

Previously  the British Parliament had a law where the American colonist had to pay taxes but on the other hand they were not given the right to elect their representatives. The Americans complaint against it and demanded for "no taxation without representation".

The main idea behind it was that as the Americans had to pay huge taxes they should be given the right to elect their representatives as the Britishers get, that is the opportunity to elect the representatives.

Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

B. first black man to vote in the United States

Explanation:

Benjamin Banneker was known as one of the early successful African Americans in the United States due to his exposure, level of education, occupation, and most importantly his non slavery background.

It is true that he was a surveyor of the nation's capital, having worked under Major Andrew Ellicott in a survey that ascertained the actual borders of the DC, the federal capital of the United States.

It is also true that he knows mathematics, astronomy, and authors some books in his lifetime.

It is also true that he was a son of a freed slave. His mom was a free African-American woman while his dad was, a former slave.

What is not true, however, is that he was the first black man to vote in the United States as that honor goes to Thomas Mundy Peterson.
