Lincoln-Douglas debate is characterized as a sequence of seven debates that took place between the Republican and Democratic Party Candidate Abraham Lincoln and Stephen Douglas. The correct sequence of the primary four steps would be 'affirmative presents, negative questions, negative presents, affirmative questions.' <em>Firstly, the positive side associated with a major issue like slavery. future expansion, etc. was presented and then the negative aspects were raised by the opposition. And similarly, the oppsoition/negative presents his point and the affirmative is given the opportunity to pose questions on it</em>. Thus, <u>option C</u> is the correct answer.
The themes of the book include morality and womanhood. Cassy commits infanticide not because she wanted to do it but because she had no choice. She was a slave and that meant she did not have the capacity to raise the baby. Despite this, she still made her decision to kill the baby and that shows her 'moral weakness.'
