Why did Frederick Douglass devote his time into Women's Rights?
Scilla [17]

Explanation:

Frederick Douglass believing that “Right is of no sex, truth is of no color,” Douglass urged an immediate end to slavery and supported Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Susan B. Anthony, and other women’s rights activists in their crusade for woman suffrage. in july of 1848, M’Clintock invited Douglass to attend the First Women’s Rights Convention in Seneca Falls, NY. Douglass readily accepted, and his participation at the convention revealed his commitment to woman suffrage. shortly after the convention, Douglass wrote,

"In respect to political rights, we hold woman to be justly entitled to all we claim for man. We go farther, and express our conviction that all political rights which it is expedient for man to exercise, it is equally so for women. All that distinguishes man as an intelligent and accountable being, is equally true of woman; and if that government is only just which governs by the free consent of the governed, there can be no reason in the world for denying to woman the exercise of the elective franchise, or a hand in making and administering the laws of the land. Our doctrine is, that “Right is of no sex.”"

While its dates are debated, the publication in 1543 of Nicolaus Copernicus' De revolutionibus orbium coelestium is often cited as marking the beginning of the Scientific Revolution.

Explain the impression that the Europeans had of King Leopold of Belgium. What was his real story?
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

The Europeans believed that Leopold was a modern ruler, who modernized and developed this country, but what most of them didn't know is that this development was based on the cruel reign that Leopold imposed in his colony in Kongo, where millions of people died due to maltreatment of Belgian authorities.

Explanation:

Leopold wanted to strengthen Belgium as a imperialistic power. Therefore, in his colony in Kongo he ordered production to be increased. Of course, all of this was based on a hard work of Natives, who suffered and many died as a result of a strict regime.
