Read the excerpt from "What Does American Democracy Mean to Me?” by Mary McLeod Bethune.

Their housing and living conditions are sordid and unhealthy. They live too often in terror of the lynch mob; are deprived too often of the Constitutional right of suffrage; and are humiliated too often by the denial of civil liberties. We do not believe that justice and common decency will allow these conditions to continue.

Which statement best explains the effectiveness of the speaker’s argument?

It is not effective because the speaker describes unhealthy living environments.
It is not effective because the speaker draws on the themes of justice and decency.
It is effective because the speaker gives examples of why change needs to be made.
It is effective because the speaker uses her history of voting to show her involvement.
