Answer:

True

Explanation:

According to the books of Daniel, during an extravagant banquet, King Belshazzar saw a divine handwritten message ( mene, mene, tekel, upharsin ) that appeared on the plaster wall of the palace after Belshazzar desecrated the temple vessels taken from Jerusalem by his father. The written words found on the wall were translated by prophet Daniel to mean that his kingdom had been numbered, weighed, and divided ( daniel 5:25-28). The prophet Daniel analysis and interprets the written words for king Belshazzar as God's judgment on the king MENE: God has numbered the days of his kingdom and brought it to an end

TEKEL: You have been weighed on the scales and found wanting

PERES: your kingdom is divided and given to the Medes and Persians.

It came to pass that very night that his kingdom was taken by the  Medes and Persians.

Trava [24]

Sojourner Truth probably disagreed with the anti-women's suffrage movement and believed that women were rational and responsible enough to be involved in politics.

"Ain't I a Woman?" is a speech by Sojourner Truth (1797–1883), an African-American anti-slavery activist born a slave in the state of New York. It was delivered at the Women's Convention in Akron, Ohio, on May 29, 1851. "Am I not a man and a brother?" was a recurring motto used in the British anti-slavery campaign as early as the late 18th century. By claiming this phrase for herself and adapting it, Truth asserted both her race and her gender.

She believed in equality between men and women as much as between whites and blacks. In her speech, she expresses in many ways how she thinks women can do as much as men can ("I am as strong as any man"), and therefore should be given the same rights. This leads us to affirm that she would likely have defended women's suffrage.

She even alludes to men's unjustified fear of giving women more power: "You need not be afraid to give us our rights for fear we will take too much." This harkens back to Abigail Adams' letter to her husband, where she asks him to "be more generous and favourable" to the ladies.

The Nixon case is a perfect demonstration of separation of powers which is a key tenet in democracy. Although Nixon argued that he enjoyed executive privilege and that the judiciary lacked power to compel him in the exercise of his discretion, the court upheld a decision compelling him to disclose material for evidence. Also, his conduct was investigated by Congress. This shows the separation of powers between the Judiciary, Executive and the Legislature.<span>
