IT AFFECTED THEM BY THE WARS WE HAVE FOUGHT WITH THEM
With the promise of freedom and new economic and educational opportunities, Kansas attracted many African Americans in its territorial days, through statehood, and into the 20th century. Slavery existed in the Kansas Territory, but slave holdings were small compared to the South. Many black migrants also came to the territory as hired laborers, while some traveled as escaped slaves through the Underground Railroad. In the 1860s, others joined the Union Army, and some moved from the South in large groups during the Kansas Exodus, a mass migration of freedpeople during the 1870s and 1880s. As a territory that had a long and violent history of pre-Civil War contests over slavery, Kansas emerged as the “quintessential free state” and seemed like a promised land for African Americans who searched for what they called a “New Canaan.”
Answer:
<h3>Representatives will be unable to support the rights of the people effectively.</h3>
Explanation:
- Legislative immunity provides senators and representatives the right to speak and state their opinions in the Congress without any fear of arbitrary arrest or defamation.
- This is done not to ensure the interest of the speaker but to protect the voice of the people which the speaker is representing.
- In a democracy the voice of the people is taken into account without fail. Therefore, the need to protect the representatives to speak or state their opinions in the Congress on behalf of the people becomes mandatory.
- If the provision of legislative immunity is not allowed, the essence of democratic process to represent and support the rights of the people would be ineffective.
I would think the author is speaking about an political event in which people vote.
Yes because a tyrant can and will do whatever he/she wants. I'd rather die than be under the control of a tyrant. In a democracy, I feel like my voice is heard (however small).
Hope this helps!
