Answer:
The work also tackles the complex relationship between Ireland and the anti-slavery movement. Douglass’s hosts in Ireland were mostly Quakers, many of whom were shielded from – and sometimes complicit in – the famine that was gripping the countryside. Similarly, many Irish in America were willing participants in slavery. Douglass’s meeting with Daniel O’Connell spurred the Irish leader to encourage the Irish community in America to support African-Americans in their fight against oppression. But his overtures went largely unheeded by the Irish political and Catholic community in the US, eager to ensure that their own people secured opportunities in their adopted country. The irony is captured in Kinahan’s work. In an interaction between Douglass and an Irish woman about to leave Cork for America, he informs her that the Irish had not always treated his people well. She replies: “Well then they’ve forgotten who they are.”
But ultimately, the work is concerned with exploring this important moment in Douglass’s life and its role in his development as a thinker and activist. As Daugherty says, Douglass’s experience in Ireland widened his understanding of what civil rights could encompass. “Douglass was much more than an anti-slavery voice. He was also a suffragette, for example, an advocate for other oppressed groups.”
Douglass himself captured the impact of his Irish journey in a letter he wrote from Belfast as he was about to leave: “I can truly say I have spent some of the happiest moments of my life since landing in this country. I seem to have undergone a transformation. I live a new life.”

It doesn't seem like any of these seem to apply- I suggest trying to look elsewhere for answers or looking for a summary on these amendments to see which one fits best. But here's what I can understand s o far in the explanation below.
Explanation:
The 1st amendment is about freedom of speech and religion.
The second is the right to bear arms for a militia.
The 5th is about being able to not answer questions during a trial, as people can say "I plead the fifth" rather than committing perjury on stand and under oath by lying.
The 14th amendment is how people born in the US are considered citizens of the US even if their parents were from other countries.
Correct answer: C. George Whitefield
George Whitefield (1714-1770) was one of the early leaders of the Methodist movement in England, and also came and preached in the American colonies. During his career, he preached tens of thousands of sermons, with millions of people having heard him preach. Ben Franklin was one of those who heard him preach and was impressed. Christianity.com reports that Franklin offered to print Whitefield's sermons and provided housing to Whitefield in Philadelphia above his shop on Market Street. Franklin wasn't a full "convert" to Whitefield's religious perspective, but he did have great respect for the work Whitefield did.
Imperialism can be in the form of a colony where a foreign country is in control of a protectorate with the local government controlled by a foreign country.
