The main idea of the excerpt from Abraham Lincoln's First Inaugural Address is:
The Southern states had no reason to worry for their personal freedom and well being.
<h3>Who was Abraham Lincoln?</h3>
Abraham Lincoln was the 16th president of the United States from 1861 to 1865, when he was murdered.
The chosen option is the correct one because in the excerpt Lincoln explains how there were not reasons for the Southern states to fear for democracy.
I was able to find online the excerpt of Lincoln's First Inaugural Address and the options to choose from:
- The Southern states openly flouted and defied the laws of the Constitution of the United States.
- The Southern states were threatened by Lincoln’s fondness for the Northern states.
- The Southern states’ authority was dwarfed by the emerging Northern states of the Union.
- The Southern states handled their personal affairs of state in an immoral and unethical way.

Answer:
Martin Luther King Jr. was arrested in Birmingham, Alabama for organizing widespread protests and he was criticized by some white Clergymen for what they viewed as the wrong methods to go about seeking equal rights.
King then replied in the ''Letter from Birmingham Jail'' where he stated that if citizens do not take direct action, there is a chance that they could wait forever to get their rights because freedom is never voluntarily given by the oppressor; it must be demanded by the oppressed.
The logic here is that people who are doing the oppressing are benefitting disproportionately from the system and so have no vested interest in changing the system and helping the oppressed so they never voluntarily give freedom to the oppressed.
If the oppressed want equal rights and freedom, they must demand it through direct action because if they do not, they might never get it.
