Question 1: Which quote from the Declaration of Independence reflects that colonists' believed the government got its authority from the people?

Question 2: Which quote from the Declaration of Independence shows that the colonists were influenced by John Locke's idea of natural rights?

"They are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights."

John Locke was a prominent French philosopher whose ideas highly influenced most of the democratic governments as we know them today. One of his most influential ideas was that people were born with certain natural, God-given and inalienable rights such as the right to life, liberty, and property. Similarly, in the Declaration of Independence, Thomas Jefferson (the author) stated that people are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable right: life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

zysi [14]

Answer and Explanation:

I believe you are referring to what happened to African Americans during the reconstruction of the south, when they were freed from slavery.

In that period, laws were established that prohibited African-Americans from being victims of discrimination and forced labor, although this still happened in society, especially episodes of discrimination. In addition, Africans have gained the right to vote, to be political representatives and to hold public office, as a reflection of their citizenship that was guaranteed through emancipation. Blacks could also participate in commerce, attend schools and own homes.
