framers
colonists

Answer 1

anti-federalists
the federalists supported the federal govt. hence the name federalists
so anti means opposite so if they opposed the constitution they would be an anti-federalist

Answer 2

Joan belong to anti-federalists.

Explanation:

The group to which Joan belonged demanded lesser allocation of power and authority to the central government in the US, because by being more authoritarian, the states, localities or individuals might end up losing their sovereignty and prestige.

They were not in support of the grant of monarchic power to the central government also because the articles of the central government were weaker to be enforced into the constitution. The drafted constitution also posed an imminent threat to personal liberties.
