Read the excerpt from Justice Curtis’s dissenting opinion, then answer the question that follows.
Slavery, being contrary to natural right, is created only by municipal law. This is not only plain in itself, and agreed by all writers on the subject, but is inferable from the Constitution, and has been explicitly declared by this court. The Constitution refers to slaves as “persons held to service in one State, under the laws thereof.” . . . .
. . . It was certainly understood by the Convention which framed the Constitution, and has been so understood ever since, that, under the power to regulate commerce, Congress could prohibit the importation of slaves; and the exercise of the power was restrained till 1808. A citizen of the United States owns slaves in Cuba, and brings them to the United States, where they are set free by the legislation of Congress. Does this legislation deprive him of his property without due process of law? If so, what becomes of the laws prohibiting the slave trade? If not, how can a similar regulation respecting a Territory violate the fifth amendment of the Constitution? . . . .
For these reasons, I am of opinion that so much of the several acts of Congress as prohibited slavery and involuntary servitude within that part of the Territory of Wisconsin . . . were constitutional and valid laws.
–Dissenting opinion on Dred Scott v. Sandford,

The Overseer rode after her, hollerin. Sarah flew over the fences. She flew over the woods. Tall trees could not snag her. Nor could the Overseer. She flew like an eagle now.
What does the simile "She flew like an eagle" mean?
Answer:
It means that she literally ran away from the supervisor, flying like a bird.
Explanation:
This question is about "The People Could Fly," which tells the story where a portion of African slaves taken by force to America managed to use their own bodies to fly. This made it possible for these slaves to escape the terrors of slavery, flying over fences and overgrowers who tried unsuccessfully to arrest them. In this case, the phrase "She flew like an eagle" means that the girl flew, like a bird, using her own body.

B. —
C. ;
Answer:
Revised laws, just leaders, unwavering support— this is how we restore peace and end segregation.
Explanation:
The em dash or long dash is one form of punctuation in grammar that has been confused and even mixed with the en dash, hyphen, etc. It has also been majorly replaced in its usage in a sentence by the comma, parenthesis, or even the semi-colon.
