On Friday, October 3, 1902, President Theodore Roosevelt called a precedent-shattering meeting at the temporary White House at 22 Lafayette Place, Washington, D.C. A great strike in the anthracite coal fields of Pennsylvania threatened a coal famine. The President feared "untold misery . . . with the certainty of riots which might develop into social war."1 Although he had no legal right to intervene, he sent telegrams to both sides summoning them to Washington to discuss the problem.

Roosevelt, who had been injured a month earlier when his carriage was hit by a trolley car, sat in his wheelchair pleading with representatives of management and labor. "With all the earnestness there is in me . ..," the President urged, "I ask that there be an immediate resumption of operations in the coal mines in some such way as will . . . meet the crying needs of the people." He appealed to the patriotism of the contestants to make "individual sacrifices for the general good."

What type of evidence does Roosevelt use to support the claim that the United Nations must attain unanimity on the human rights
Reika [66]

Answer:

Roosevelt uses logical evidence by explaining that, once people have seen these freedoms, they will want them for themselves.

Explanation:

Eleanor Roosevelt's 1958 speech "The Struggle for Human Rights" was given in Paris to appeal to the members of the United Nations to vote for the Declaration of Human Rights. Her speech talks about the <em>"preservation of human rights" </em>and how it is important that individual rights be given enough importance as opposed to collective rights.

In her speech, Roosevelt talks about how unanimity is a difficult task to achieve, considering the <em>"different concepts of government and human rights"</em> that each government has. But at the same time, the struggle to achieve unanimity <em>"must be firm and patient." </em>She also reiterates the importance of such unity in the face of a desire to be free.

Thus, the correct answer is the second option.
