Answer 1

La opción correcta es la primera: "A los estadounidenses negros se les privan de los mismos derechos que los estadounidenses blancos celebran el 4 de julio". Este enunciado refleja el argumento central de Frederick Douglass en su famoso discurso "¿Qué es para el esclavo el 4 de julio?". Douglass argumenta que la celebración de la libertad y la independencia es una burla para los esclavos que aún sufren la opresión y la privación de sus derechos fundamentales.Las otras opciones no representan el mensaje principal del discurso. Si bien Douglass menciona la grandeza de los fundadores, lo hace para contrastarla con la hipocresía de la nación que permite la esclavitud. El hecho de que los negros sirvan en diversos roles no es el punto central de su argumento, y aunque la diferencia en el trato legal entre blancos y negros es un factor importante, la primera opción resume de manera más precisa la tesis principal del discurso.
