What groups were not given freedoms and rights in the Constitution?​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: Black Americans and Women

Explanation:

When the Constitution was drawn up in the Constitutional Convention, certain groups were not catered for.

One of those groups were Black Americans. At the time, the southern economy was heavily dependent on slave labor so they did not want the enslaved people to gain freedoms and fought against it. They denied them the right to vote as well and during censuses did not count them as full human beings.

Some of these injustices were reversed after the Civil war but racial inequality was openly practiced for a long time afterwards until reforms at a Federal level (such as the Civil Rights Act) reduced most of them.

Women also were disenfranchised in a very patriarchal society. They were not allowed to vote and could not even some political offices. This led to the Suffrage movements of the 19th and 20th centuries that eventually got Congress to pass laws allowing women to vote. Congress has since then passed more laws aimed at reducing and eliminating discrimination on the grounds of being a woman since then.

The content of Dr. King’s speech, his inspiring presence, and the moment in history all came together to make the iconic “I Have A Dream” speech the defining moment of the American Civil Rights Movement. But there are several other reasons why this speech, delivered over 50 years ago, remains an example of one of the best speeches in American history.

Since part of my job is to help people become better presenters, I’ve noticed several techniques that we can all learn from and be inspired by in this magnificent speech.

IT’S ANCHORED IN A POWERFUL RELATED LOCATION

In most cases, you can’t handpick the spot to give a presentation, as MLK did for supreme symbolic effect when he stood on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial and echoed the opening words of the Gettysburg Address (“Five score years ago . . . ). But you absolutely can amplify your message by adapting it to your setting and location.

Think about place, and how you can weave imagery, anecdote, and historical context into your presentation. Even if you’re presenting essentially the same material in Annapolis and Anaheim, it’s worth exploring what inspiration you can draw from each location to make your overall presentation more unique, more tailored, and more memorable. Abraham Lincoln also incorporated context in his iconic speech.
