Answer:
The two statements from Anthony's speech which states that the government should ensure that basic rights are not infringed upon are:
- “We assert the province of government to be to secure the people in the enjoyment of their unalienable rights.”
- “And when 100 or 1,000,000 people enter into a free government, they do not barter away their natural rights; they simply pledge themselves to protect each other in the enjoyment of them, through prescribed judicial and legislative tribunals.”
Explanation:
'Is it a Crime for a Citizen of the United States to Vote?
' is a speech delivered by Susan B. Anthony on April 3, 1873. The speech is about voting rights, which the Constitution of the United States give to its citizens as basic human rights. Anthony centers her speech around this theme only, that the basic human rights can not be infringed by the government.The two statements from the speech which best supports this claim are:
Paragraph 2, line 2,
- “We assert the province of government to be to secure the people in the enjoyment of their unalienable rights.”
Another evidence is in Paragraph 2, line 6,
- “And when 100 or 1,000,000 people enter into a free government, they do not barter away their natural rights; they simply pledge themselves to protect each other in the enjoyment of them, through prescribed judicial and legislative tribunals.”
In these two statements, Anthony is describing her views on governmental role and explanation of the governmental role.
