The Declaration of Independence, I believe :)
Answer:
The correct answer is letter c) c. Nearly all participants called the experimenter's attention to the learner's suffering, and many participants stated explicitly that they refused to continue.
Explanation:
The Milgram Experiment was a scientific experiment developed by psychologist Stanley Milgram. The experiment aimed to answer the question of how observed participants tend to obey the authorities, even if their orders contradict individual common sense. In analyzing the experiment, subjects were uncomfortable doing so and exhibited varying degrees of tension and stress. Participants did not mindlessly obey. Nearly all tried to disobey in one form or another. Nearly everyone called the experimenter's attention to the learner's suffering in an implicit plea to stop the proceedings. Many stated explicitly that they refused to continue (but nonetheless went on with the experiment)
Assuming you're pro-Columbus day, these are points that can be made:
Being historically accurate, Columbus day should be celebrated because he attempted and was successful at colonizing and helping America grow.
A common argument trying to counter being pro-Columbus day is the mention of killing Native Americans, so you can mention that diseases had already existed and were the primary cause of death in the New Land rather than Natives being killed (keep in mind though that disease and murder were both factors).
Another Pro argument that could be made is the fact that yes, vikings DID find America first, however Columbus helped Americas economy, etc.
Assuming you're anti-Columbus day, these are more points:
What Christopher Columbus did to Native Americans is unjust, essentially he took land from the Natives and they were forced to convert and change their lifestyle in order to work with Columbus or were killed; brutality is unacceptable.
The day itself should be focused on the Native American victims of Columbus.
The vikings technically found the New Land.
I hope this helped a little! :)
This is a personal question, which means that only you can answer it. However, I can give some examples that might help guide your work.
An example of a primary source that you might encounter in your own life is that of a news article. As this article is likely to be written by a reporter witnessing the events, it can be considered a primary source. On the other hand, an example of a secondary source would be a non-fiction book that talks about a historical event. This is because such a book would give a second-hand account of an event based on historical information.
