Answer:

C) Abraham Lincoln

Explanation:

In the second paragraph of the "I Have a Dream" speech, Martin Luther King states:

<em>"Five score years ago a great American in whose symbolic shadow we stand today signed the Emancipation Proclamation."</em>

In these lines, King is referring to Abraham Lincoln. The Emancipation Proclamation was an executive order issued on January 1, 1863. It declared that all slaves who were under the government of the Union would immediately be free.

Answer:

The Color Purple

Alice Walker

Southern US early 1900's, yes, she goes from a young woman living with her abusive father and her kind sister to living with her friends in africa after her long and hard life

Celie is a poor undereducated 14 year old living in the american south, her father rapes and beats her, her mother died cursing her on her death bed, Nettie is her sweet younger sister by 2 years, Celie is married off to a man named mister who treats her very poorly. celie has 2 children which were taken away from her.

Man vs Self : celie asks herself why do all these things happen to her Man vs Man: celie vs the men in her life Man vs society: Celie fight societal norms wanting to defend herself from the people that hurt her even though thry are at a higher standing

first person POV, the words used in the novel were I, Me, She, We when refering to the speaker

This novel could only take place during the 1900's as in any other time period celie would have either less or more rights than this point in time.

As this is not an exact true story but still takes place in the past in an accurate description of a specific historical period that makes it a historical fiction novel.

I love the book, and the movie it really makes you appreciate  your life and the plot was very satisfying all the way to the end
