Solution
The correct option is D Both Alex and Kate are wrong. Early Nationalists recognised the importance of freedom of speech and press in the struggle for independence. The press were influential in the spread of nationalism in the country. They wanted to be free to gather, discuss, and form associations. They wanted a state where the law focuses on the benefit of the people and their communities. They opposed the acts that attempted to limit them.
