Answer:

C. It highlighted the importance Americans placed on protecting civil liberties.

Explanation:

This passage is part of the Fifth Amendment that constitutes the Bill of Rights. The Bill of Rights was created in a time when Americans feared that without laws that specifically protected individual liberties and limited the scope of the government, the latter could abuse from its power, thus, the bill highlighted the importance Americans placed on protecting civil liberties. The Fifth Amendment also reflects this, because it guarantees the protection of civil liberties such as life, liberty, property, due process of law, and just compensation in the case that the government needed to take people's property for public use.

How did the Emancipation Proclamation and the Gettysburg Address redefine the Declaration of Independence?
slega [8]

Answer:

Gettysburg Address: On November 19, 1863, President Abraham Lincoln delivered remarks, which later became known as the Gettysburg Address, at the official dedication ceremony for the National Cemetery of Gettysburg in Pennsylvania, on the site of one of the bloodiest and most decisive battles of the Civil War. Though he was not the featured orator that day, Lincoln’s brief address would be remembered as one of the most important speeches in American history. In it, he invoked the principles of human equality contained in the Declaration of Independence and connected the sacrifices of the Civil War with the desire for “a new birth of freedom,” as well as the all-important preservation of the Union created in 1776 and its ideal of self-government.

President Abraham Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation on January 1, 1863, as the nation approached its third year of bloody civil war. The proclamation declared "that all persons held as slaves" within the rebellious states "are, and henceforward shall be free."

What was the main goal of groups like the Ku Klux Klan?
ahrayia [7]
The KKK was a group about white supremacy, they believed that someone who was white was more superior than any other race. Most members wore a white cape like things (I'm sorry I don't know how to describe) and their leader would wear red. (kinda like the smurfs and the papa smurf) Basically, they favoured the time before the civil war when black people didn't have any rights and were slaves. Throughout the years there have been three groups known as the KKK (Ku Klux Klan) One I think was during the 50's than one in the 70's and I think one started again in the 90's.
