Where does henry say he receives his insight into the future
Trava [24]

This question is incomplete, here´s the complete question.

In his "Liberty or Death" speech where does Patrick Henry say he receives his insight into the future?

Answer: The past

Explanation:

Patrick Henry´s “Liberty or Death” speech was delivered at the 1775 Virginia Convention, summoned to establish a strategy in the negotiation with the British Crown.

Henry was a strong opponent of the British taxation policies and wanted to convince those who wished a pacific reconciliation with King George

to establish a defensive position against him.

According to the single known account of his speech, developed by the biographer William Wirt based on his correspondence with some of the Convention´s attendants, Henry said:

"I know of no way of judging of the future but by the past. And judging by the past, I wish to know what there has been in the conduct of the British ministry for the last ten years, to justify those hopes with which gentlemen have been pleased to solace themselves, and the House?”

The study of civics includes the rights, responsibilities and duties of citizens as well as how the government addresses citizen
Lana71 [14]
Civic Education in a democracy is education in self government. Democratic self government means that citizens are actively involved in their own governance; they do not just passively accept the dictums of others or acquiesce to the demands of others. As Aristotle put it in his Politics (c 340 BC), "If liberty and equality, as is thought by some, are chiefly to be found in democracy, they will be attained when all persons alike share in the government to the utmost." In other words, the ideals of democracy are most completely realized when every member of the political community shares in its governance. Members of the political community are its citizens, hence citizenship in a democracy is membership in the body politic. Membership implies participation, but not participation for participation's sake. Citizen participation in a democratic society must be based on informed, critical reflection, and on the understanding and acceptance of the rights and responsibilities that go with that membership.
