The correct answer to this open question is the following.

This is the summary.

Frederick Douglass was an African American reformer and abolitionist who, on July 5, 1852, was invited a keynote speaker during the Independence Day celebration. There, he delivered a controversial speech about the impact of independence on black people living in America.

Right there, in the Corinthian Hall of Rochester, in the state of New York, Douglass delivered a controversial speech nobody expected. He set the tone of the speech since the very beginning of his words when he literally said "This fourth of July is yours, not mine. You may rejoice. I must mourn."

That really caught people's attention. And that was just the beginning.

In his speech, Douglass recognized the value and courage of the United States founding fathers but clearly established that those rights stated in the US Constitution were not for everyone. They were just for the white people. Not the African American people who have been suffering for racist segregation and most in the South were suffering because they were slaves.

Salsk061 [2.6K]

1. Physical Issue with high use of digital technology - <em>Text Neck Syndrome</em>

Text Neck Syndrome or Anterior Neck Syndrome refers to strain in the neck and shoulders that is caused by flexing the neck forwards and downwards while using a smartphone. Increased usage of smartphones has increased the risk of text neck syndrome.

Solution: To reduce the risk of Text Neck Syndrome:

a) smartphone usage should be minimized

b) Hold your phone at eye level while using it

c) Perform gentle neck stretches.

2. Psychological Issue with high use of digital technology- <em>Low self-esteem</em>

Individuals of all ages, and especially adolescents, might experience low self-esteem, feelings of inadequacy and poor body-image due to high use of digital technology. This is because digital technology over-represents models or celebrities who are  underweight. Additionally, platforms like [email protected] and [email protected] predominately display the glamorous side of life (parties, vacations, etc.) that are not an accurate reflection of reality.

Solution: The best solution for the aforementioned scenario would be to follow content that is positive, encouraging and motivational, such as well-being podcasts, [email protected] groups, [email protected] accounts, etc. Additionally, limiting usage of digital technology would also be helpful.
