Quartering Act, (1765), in American colonial history, the British parliamentary provision (actually an amendment to the annual Mutiny Act) requiring colonial authorities to provide food, drink, quarters, fuel, and transportation to British forces stationed in their towns or villages. Resentment over this practice is reflected in the Third Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, which forbids it in peacetime.

2) The Anti-federalists demanded more written protection than the Federalists did for individual rights.
In order to get 9/13 states to ratify the Constitution, the Federalists had to appease the Anti-Federalists, who were concerned that a strong national government would take away the people's rights.
Note: Anti-Federalists supported the Articles of Confederation more, as the power rested in the state governments.
3) Therefore, each branch of the central government will have the power to check the power of the other branches.
This is the only correct answer as the concern at that time was that the national government would have too much power.
4) refer to people electing leaders to make government decisions
This is the only answer that makes sense.
A representative democracy is one in which the people elect representatives to make decisions for them.

Answer:

A lot of people wonder how racism affected colored people and how their treatment is different. Well, colored people were always on the poor end of the stick they worked in factories and plantations and were always in debt. They were beaten and bruised if they didn't follow an order by their "master". Colored women could be raped or abused badly. After a while things did get a little better but everything was seperated by race. Brown vs. Board allowed colored kids to finally go to school and learn to read and write and the North became a place of freedom and regular human rights for all no matter the race. Mr. Luther King Jr. fought for normal human rights through peace with the general public and from then on everything changed and now we're here today where everyone has equal rights no matter your race
