Answer: C

Explanation: Habeas corpus, which protected a person from being imprisoned for an unlimited period of time without a trial, was introduced in the Magna Carta. The document asserted, “No Freeman shall be taken or imprisoned, or be disseized or exiled or in anyway destroyed, nor will we go upon him nor send upon him except by the lawful judgment of his peers, or by the law of the land.”[2] This, likewise, ensured freemen who had been accused of crimes the right to trial by those of equal rank.

garik1379 [7]

Although there were several events that gave participation to black people in the governments, these were the most important:

  1. The Civil Rights Movement in the United States: it was a long, and mainly non-violent, struggle to extend full access to civil rights and equality before the law to groups that do not have them, especially black citizens.
  2. Little Rock, 1957: Also known as Little Rock Crisis was a key moment in American civil rights movements, following the decision of the Supreme Court in the Brown case, the school committee of Little Rock, Arkansas, voted in 1957 to integrate the school system.
