Atticus says, "Simply because we were licked a hundred years before we started is no reason for us not to try to win."

Answers may vary on the second part of the question. Example: Atticus is most likely
referring to the deep-rooted racism in Maycomb County, which goes back hundreds of
<span>years. Although the novel is set nearly seventy years after the abolition of slavery, prejudice against black people is still very much alive in America, especially in Deep South states like Alabama. Atticus is saying that entrenched racism is what has already "licked" Robinson's chances of a fair trial. However, this is not going to cause Atticus to simply give up and not even try to win the case.

Explain the meaning of these quotes! - Document 2: John Locke, Second Treatise on Government (1690)
Airida [17]

Answer:Two Treatises of Government, major statement of the political philosophy of the English philosopher John Locke, published in 1689 but substantially composed some years before then.

The work may be considered a response to the political situation as it existed in England at the time of the exclusion controversy—the debate over whether a law could be passed to forbid (exclude) the succession of James, the Roman Catholic brother of King Charles II (reigned 1660–85), to the English throne—though its message was of much more lasting significance. Locke strongly supported exclusion. In the preface to the work, composed at a later date, he makes clear that the arguments of the two treatises are continuous and that the whole constitutes a justification of the Glorious Revolution, which deposed James (who reigned, as James II, from 1685 to 1688) and brought the Protestant William III and Mary II to the throne.
