a. Amanda is guilty of blockbusting.

Explanation:

Blockbusting is an illegal and discriminatory tactic used by real estate agents to try and buy houses in areas that are less accepting to minority group , they create a situation that will cause fear to the majority or dominant group in such that this group may end up truly selling their houses at a lower price.

This fear is promoted by telling this dominant group that the minority group is soon going to invade their neighbourhood. They may promote fear by telling them about criminal activities that are going to increase or take place when the minority group moves to the neighborhood. For this reason the dominant group end up selling their houses at a lower price and the broker buys them at that price but sell them at a higher price to the minority group which is dying to get into a safe and less crowded neighborhood.

the anti federalists was a movement that was opposed to the creation of a us federal government. although they were not as organized as the federalists, they also had a large group of leaders, especially in state politics.

the statement "now, in a large extended country, it is impossible to have a representation, possessing the sentiments, and of integrity, to declare the minds of the people” represents the concerns of the anti federalists.

they strongly believed that the federalists were representing the interests of aristocratic elements of society at the expense of the majority of ordinary people, who lived in a rural society.

their fear for the creation of a strong federal government and the president’s power of veto in their opinion would create a tyrannical rule that would dominate the people. they defended the importance of restraining the government’s power towards people at any cost.
