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.

Why were countries competing for colonization of Africa during Imperialism?
nexus9112 [7]

Between the 1870s and 1900, Africa faced European imperialist aggression, diplomatic pressures, military invasions, and eventual conquest and colonization. At the same time, African societies put up various forms of resistance against the attempt to colonize their countries and impose foreign domination. By the early twentieth century, however, much of Africa, except Ethiopia and Liberia, had been colonized by European powers.

The European imperialist push into Africa was motivated by three main factors, economic, political, and social. It developed in the nineteenth century following the collapse of the profitability of the slave trade, its abolition and suppression, as well as the expansion of the European capitalist Industrial Revolution. The imperatives of capitalist industrialization—including the demand for assured sources of raw materials, the search for guaranteed markets and profitable investment outlets—spurred the European scramble and the partition and eventual conquest of Africa. Thus the primary motivation for European intrusion was economic.
