The correct answer is C) Women are judged under laws supposedly written only for males, so they are entitled to the same rights as males.

The argument that Susan B. Anthony is making in the passage is "Women are judged under laws supposedly written only for males, so they are entitled to the same rights as males.

Suzan B. Anthony, leader of the women's suffrage movement, expressed the following words to support her point: "But is urged, the use of the masculine pronouns he, his and him, in all the constitutions and laws, is proof that only men were meant to be included in their provisions. If you insist on this version of the letter of the law, we shall insist that you be consistent, and accept the other horn of the dilemma, which would compel you to exempt women from taxation for the support of the government, and from penalties for the violation of laws.

. . . The same is true of all the criminal laws: "No person shall be compelled to be a witness against himself."

The other options of the question were A) Male citizens created the laws to secure the rights of men, so legal reform is required to secure women’s rights. B) Women are often punished for committing criminal acts that are pardoned when committed by men. D) The court judge modified the original documents to arrest and try Anthony unfairly.

guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

Anglo-Americans never considerate themselves as part of the Mexican government.

Explanation:

Texas settled by Mexican farmers and ranchers after it got independence from Spanish colonial power in 1821. Settlers began farming and ranching in Texas as the land was available at a reasonable price. Settlers in Texas dealt with buying land and raising cattle and livestock. The Mexican government invited Anglo-Americans for the development of regions as it remains unoccupied. Anglo- Americans migrated to Texas in the 1820s to get cheap farmland. They always saw themselves as part of America even though they received land and rights in Texas under the Mexican government. They resented Mexican laws and never adopted any Mexican identity while living in Mexican territory as they always saw Mexicans was contradictory and thought them as shallow and lazy.

Read the statement from Philip Schaff.
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:  Because it showed that change is possible

Explanation/context:

The medieval era had been one in which the Roman Catholic Church dominated the culture of Europe, and it was thought that no one could successfully challenge such a deeply ingrained institution.  However, the Reformation movement by Martin Luther and other Protestant figures showed that even something as entrenched and enduring at the Catholic Church could be challenged, and changes could be accomplished.  Even during Martin Luther's lifetime, this idea that change was possible motivated people to launch efforts toward other major changes to powerful systems.  The Peasants Revolt that occurred in Germany in 1524-1525 took  Luther's push for reform in the church and applied it to make a push for change in feudal society.  Martin Luther himself didn't agree with that and opposed the Peasants Revolt, but as Schaff points out, the momentum of the Reformation was a "propelling force" inspiring other "forward movements" to make changes in society.
