Answer:

Justice Robert Smith ruled unanimously that women were not “persons” under Section 24 of the BNA Act. Women were therefore ineligible for appointment to the Senate. Their decision was based on the premise that the BNA Act had to be interpreted the same way in 1928 as in 1867, when the Act was passed.

Which situation best illustrates tyranny of the majority?
12345 [234]

Answer:

C) Support of laws protecting slavery in the 19th century.

Explanation:

America during the 1800s, after Reconstruction ended, and even into the 1900s showed clear tyranny in the treatment of African Americans. Southerners and Northerners alike, despite the several Amendments banning them from the indoctrination of slavery. Northerners, after it was proven that ending slavery would be a challenging task, gave up entirely on protecting African American rights, and the Southerners used methods like literacy tests and the Jim Crow Laws to put African Americans into slavery-like conditions. Groups like the KKK rose in attempts to stop Africans Americans from using their rights by committing acts of violence. America's treatment of the African American community being entirely against them shows what exactly can happen when the entire majority of a democratic nation are tyrannical.
