I think it was the past with Britain where only one person had complete power. This did not allow people to have a say, which was the reasons why the 13 colonies rebelled. Including the right of the people to revolt against a tyrannical government would protect the fundament of the united states government which was to give the people power and to make sure the US would not become something similar to Britain.
The slave trade encouraged African nations to wage war and disrupted local cultures and economies. This in turn resulted in a failure to industrialize, making the nations of Africa far more susceptible to European colonization.
Hey there,
There goal was to gain certain right's for the African american's. They wanted goal's to set some qualities.
Hope this helps.
