Answer:

B. clever

Explanation:

In his famous speech from 1852, later named "What to A Slave is The Fourth of July" Douglass uses this special date to express his views on the position of slaves in America at the time.

Comparing the fight of the Americans for their independance and against unjust treatment by the British to the situation of black community in the USA some seventy years later, he asks for understanding and support in the pursuit of those same values Americans fought for in the Revolution.

He also uses this argument to criticize respect of this values (freedom and rights) by white US citizens, while, at the same time restraining black people for obtaining them, using well chosen words and clever arguments to emphasize this hypocrisy.

Should all education be free?

Education should be free. Independent. Leadership. Equality. These all are characteristic to how a free collage should be. For the citizens of the United States.

Collage should be free because over half of our population has no education because of money issues. That means lots of people don't have jobs and that leads to being homeless or living with your parents for the rest of your lives. Every class requires money and on top of that you have to pay a couple thousand dollars for books and then add in the price for all of your school supplies. Most people go to college a minimum of four years and more depending on the type of job they want. On average in the US the amount of money spent per year on college is 8,993 dollars. Although having a free education would increase taxes.

Not everyone has enough money to support themselves and going to college. Yet everyone deserves to have an education because it helps you over all with life decisions. In fact college graduates are more likely to have kids that go to college as well. Most people should go to college as well because they will most likely make more money.

Wich is treated better：the elderly or foster teens? Why?

Feliz [49]

I would say the elderly because as we know they lived longer then us and have experienced much more then we have, when you look at it from there you would see why they are more respected. On the other hand foster teens are not treated as good is because majority of teens that come from foster care don’t have a high school diploma and struggle on relationships so they are thought of as a burden.

Answer:

either understanding self and others or daring to be different

Explanation:

I don't know which story you're talking about but by the description, I think these two are the closest. In my opinion, I think daring to be different is the best answer, but if that isn't right, it's understanding self and others
