Explanation

A primary source is a firsthand document created by someone involved in or witnessing the events or debate. “March of the Flag” is a speech from the period of U.S. expansionism, and “For the Equal Rights Amendment” presents an argument from the campaign for the amendment. Both are original sources from the debates they describe, so both are primary sources.
