After reading “the crisis, no. 1,” what do you think paine means by the line, "these are the times that try men’s souls"? cite evidence from the text to support your analysis.

my
when paine talks about "the times that try men's souls", he is talking about how there is currently tyranny. he states "the summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands by it now, deserves the love and of man and woman. tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; ", where the people who stand up to the tyranny, shall be praised by everyone.

the tests
america was going through a difficult period when paine wrote "the crisis, no. 1." some soldiers were abandoning the fight for freedom, and therefore, paine tried to convince them through these lines: "these are the times that try men's souls. the summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands by it now, deserves the love and of man and woman."

paine agreed that the time was full of troubles and problems, and it was testing the hard work of the people. however, he appealed to them to not abandon the war. he argued that hope was not yet lost, and victory was within reach as long as americans continued their struggle.

Read the excerpt from a supporting opinion of the supreme court’s ruling in plessy v. ferguson, 1896. laws permitting, and even requiring, their separation in places where they are liable to be brought into contact do not necessarily imply the inferiority of either race to the other, and have been generally, if not universally, recognized as within the competency of the state legislatures in the exercise of their police power. how does this relate to the premises of brown v. board of education? the brown case addresses whether state legislatures are equipped to judge the quality of education offered at segregated schools. the brown case addresses whether authorities believe that one race is inferior to another when creating public schools. the brown case addresses whether these laws inherently deny certain citizens equal protection under the law. the brown case addresses the legality of using police power to monitor public places separated by race.
