Answer:

The colonial citizens were able to influence the laws that governed them because they were allowed to choose and elect their own members of the legislature.

Explanation:

Colonial citizens had this advantage that they were able to choose members from their own people. They were able to make and amend their own laws.

Colonial citizens did not have this power before. After decades of tyranny and a lot of wars, certain rules were made.

Colonies were made throughout the world, countries would capture and land and make it their own without a care in the world. Whoever lived their before had no say because the people had no say in it. People who captured the lands were brutal enough to kill anyone who came in their way.

how did how did Rosa Parks become a hero and an inspiration to people all over the nation who were looking for racial equality
Inessa05 [86]

Rosa Parks (1913-2005) performed an act of insurrection when she refused to stand up and give her bus seat, located the bus section that was supposed to be for black passengers, to a white woman after the bus driver requested her to do so because the white section of the vehicle was already full. This happened in Montgomery in 1955. She was arrested for violating the segregation laws from Alabama.

Her action and subsequent arrest triggered the start of the Montgomery Bus Boyycott, as a social protest within Civil Rights Movement that lasted from 1955 to 1956 and aimed to end segregation in US public facilities.
