Assuming that the groups you have to choose from are:
- A. Believers in a strong national government
- B. Advocates for states' rights
- C. Supporters of abolition
- D. Proponents of western expansion
Believers in a strong national government (A) were most likely to oppose the <em>Marbury v. Madison</em> decision.
This famous 1803 Supreme Court case opposed William Marbury, backed by ex-President John Adams, and James Madison, backed by President Thomas Jefferson.
Adams was a Federalist, a believer in a centralized, national government.
Jefferson was a Democratic-Republican, a defender of states' rights (B), western expansion (D), and the abolition of slavery (C).
<em>Marbury v. Madison</em> was won by the Democratic-Republicans, because the Supreme Court ruled that Madison had a right to prevent Marbury from getting the job he wanted as a justice of the peace commissioned by the former president.

The correct answers are B) segregation laws of the South, C) high poverty rates among African Americans and D) discrimination.
<em>Dr. King is criticizing these issues in his speech: segregation laws of the South, high poverty rates among African Americans and discrimination.</em>
In his famous speech, Martin Luther King again defends African American civil rights and invites people to reflect on the issue of segregation and injustice. He refers to the segregation laws of the South that had affected and divided society in incidents such as the Montgomery Bus Boycott in the city of Montgomery, Alabama. He also referred to the increasing and high poverty rates that hurt black people and limited their possibilities to grow and prosper, and finally, the issue of discrimination and the effect on the United States society.
He became a leader in the abolitionist movement, which sought to end the practice of slavery, before and during the Civil War. After that conflict and the Emancipation Proclamation of 1862, he continued to push for equality and human rights until his death in 1895.
