1. The quote means that when a country chooses neutrality they act as a bystander towards the matter. This weakens the victim and only encourages the oppressor to continue their injustices.
2. Being silent hurts those facing oppressions because it offers no help to them and no change towards their mistreatment. This kind of silence continues the oppression those face

Answer:

1. The quote emphasizes the importance of speaking out against unjust and cruel mistreatment.

2. Silence gives the oppressor little to no friction against their actions, encouraging them to continue. Fighting back and making the torment on innocent lives more difficult to achieve has a much higher chance of the attempt failing or eventually ending rather than simply allowing the oppression continue; where there is ease in the abuse of power, it's guaranteed to progress.

I'm not sure but here are some things europeans take from Africa and I hope this counts

Africans were either captured in warning raids or kidnapped and taken to the port by African slave traders. There they were exchanged for iron, guns, gunpowder, mirrors, knives, cloth, and beads brought by boat from Europe. When Europeans arrived along the West African coast, slavery already existed on the continent.

What were the pros and cons of the Battle of Quebec? What would this battle lead to in the future? ​
Inessa05 [86]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached, we can say the following.

As part of the Seven Years War(1756-1763), the Battle of Quebec represented a turning point in the region called New France that until that day, was controlled by the French. This battle was also part of the fights in North America in what was known as the French and Indian War.

Great Britain and its allies Prussia, and Hanover, fought the French Army and its allies Spain, Sweden, Russia, and Austria.

The Battle was fought on September 13, 1759, and by September 18, the French had surrendered the city to the British troops.

The consequence of this battle was that the British soldiers stayed isolated in the region because due to the frozen weather, they could not navigate through the St. Lawrence River. AS the British did not get reinforcements, were easily defeated by General Francois Gastón de Levys on April 28, 1760. The French Army outnumber the English soldiers.
