Answer:
<em>d. this is a call to revolution</em>

Explanation:
Henry is calling for a revolution.

I agree with the person above - although this wouldn't be my first thought when I hear the word empower, among these answers, the one that seems the most correct is A. to create a strong desire or longing.
For example:
The desire to go home empowered me.
D.the story's theme is the correct answer. YOUR WELCOME!!
