(from a soldier for the crown)

it might be ironic that freeman considers the deed of manumission to be precious because she is happy that she owns a pass for the British so that she can be freee but if she shows her true identity then she is scarred that they are going to take it away from so she is unsure if she is free or not. On the pass it says her name is "alexander freeman" and it’s not her because she is a girl and that is her name to get by so she cann be free. she claims an identity that isnt hers to be free. the deed of of manumission is precious because its what emancipated slaves and freed them.

Answer:

1. The Civil Rights Movement of February 1, 1960.- Supporting Argument

2. The case of a bone marrow donor for the Silicon Valley worker.- Counterargument

Explanation:

The author Malcolm Gladwell used the case of the sit-in by the four students in a white restaurant on February 1, 1960, to support his argument that close ties are very essential to high-risk activism. He believed that knowing friends on a personal level who supported the same course increased the chances of participating and persevering in acts of protests that could be life-threatening. For him, this level of success cannot be ensured by social media.

A counter-argument was when a Silicon Valley worker came down with leukemia that required a bone marrow transplant. It was impossible to get the donor through close relatives but only succeeded through a social media platform when the message was circulated among many people. The author countered the success of social media in this regard by saying that the intent was to have a sense of accomplishment and to receive praise. It did not involve a financial or personal risk.
