The 14th Amendment to the Constitution forbids the states to deny any citizen the rights granted by federal law. It also defines

how citizenship is acquired and declares that all citizens are entitled to equal protection of the law. The original purpose of the amendment was to provide citizenship for former slaves and give them full civil rights.
Through the years however the Supreme Court has interpreted the 14th Amendment in different ways. The court has applied the equal protection clause of the 14th Amendment to a number of cases. For example, in 1905 the court used it in Lochner v. New York to strike down state laws regulating working hours. In 1973, in Roe v. Wade, the court ruled that states may not prohibit a woman, under certain conditions from having an abortion.

With which of the following statements would the author of Source D most likely agree?


The 14th Amendment is no longer applicable in modern day society.

The 14th Amendment caused the government to reinterpret the purpose of the Bill of Rights.

Connecticut and Massachusetts were not included in the incorporation of the Bill of Rights.

Before the Civil War, state powers were heavily regulated by the federal government.

What did olympe de gouges and mary wollstonecraft have in common
kirza4 [7]

Olympe De Gouges and Mary Wollstonecraft were both dedicated feminists and advocates for women's rights during the 1700s.

Olympe De Gouges fought for the right for women to be able to divorce. During this time women did not have the right to divorce spouses and would often be stuck for life, she did not want this. She spoke up about how she thought that women were treated unequally and ended up starting movements and people fighting for women's rights during the Enlightenment eras to come.

Mary Wollstonecraft also fought for women's rights and she was a huge feminist. She focused on something different than Olympe De Gouges, she wanted equal education. She felt that the education system was flawed and sexist and it preferred men's education over women's education. The education that women would receive would leave them incapable and not prepared for the real world, Mary Wollstonecraft wanted to change this.
