Answer:

Thoreau's Civil Disobedience espouses the need to prioritize one's conscience over the dictates of laws. It criticizes American social institutions and policies, most prominently slavery and the Mexican-American War.

Thoreau begins his essay  arguing that the government rarely proves itself useful and that it derives its power from the majority because they are the strongest group, not because they hold the most legitimate viewpoint. He contends that people's first obligation is to do what they believe is right and not to follow the law dictated by the majority. When a government is unjust, people should refuse to follow the law and distance themselves from the government in general. A person is not obligated to devote his life to eliminating evils from the world, but he is obligated not to participate in such evils.

Levart [38]
Something along the lines of seeing the jews treated as pigs on a farm if I remember correctly, I believe it is a reference to George Orwell's "Animal Farm".
It may be slightly off my memory is a bit foggy, but it's definitely the right concept I'm sure.

Select the active voice verb below. (Karen Filippeli will complete in the chess tournament next week.)
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

Compete

Explanation:

I am assuming "complete" was a typo and that the word "compete" is what you meant. In this case, compete is an active voice vers, because it is a verb that a subject is performing.

Active voice verbs are the opposite of passive voice verbs. Passive voice verbs are verbs that are done to the subject, as opposed to the subject doing them.
