guided practice
which principle best summarizes lincolns gettysburg address?

b. states rights
c. equality of all people
d. the abolition of slavery

Explanation:

Lincoln's Gettysburg Address centers on the idea that the U.S. was founded on the principle that "all men are created equal," tying the Civil War to upholding this core value of equality for all people. Habeas corpus is a legal protection against unlawful detention, states' rights were a central conflict of the Civil War (opposed by Lincoln's push for federal unity), and while Lincoln opposed slavery, the address's overarching principle is the equality of all people as the nation's foundational ideal.

Answer:

C. equality of all people
