People were governed by councils, instead of by an absolute ruler
Popular sovereignty is where the government is created and run by the will of the people.
So your answer would be people.
Hello, Morgansheridonolson
I'd like to thank you for using Brainly! We all love to help out when we have a chance.
I was reading over the question and noticed the word "union" at the end of the sentence, what the speaker is saying is that they formed this union over with his group of people. And with that group they were able to do something that's possibly political, keep in mind they talk about race in the speech too. I believe the answer would be C, Voting for all blacks. I'd like you to read over again and hear this part "it was we, the people; not we, the white male citizens. The speaker is implying that they are not black and says things about the whites.
Again, Morgansheridonolson, thanks for being able to use Brainly.
Have an amazing day,
Emacathy

On April 12, 1861, forces from the Confederate States of America attacked the United States military garrison at Fort Sumter, South Carolina. Less than two days later, the fort surrendered. No one was killed. The battle, however, started the Civil War, the bloodiest conflict in American history.
