"secular" basically means worldly--anything that isn't spiritually or religiously inclined. examples of "secularism" might be self-indulgence of alcohol or erotic material, or just enjoying certain human pleasures that have no religious reward, such as gourmet food.
humanism basically put humans above all else. they set aside the biblical stories that had religious value and started focusing on more mundane issues. they pointed out the goodness and usefulness of people rather than relying on religion. in this way, humanism promoted secularism because it was promoting humans themselves. it turned away from the strong traditional customs and encouraged humans to problem-solve on their own. it encouraged less reliance on religion and highlighted the abilities of people.
as a disclaimer, i'd like to add that this is just historical context i've gathered from my art history courses. further research might grant you more thorough observations!!

Answer:
Explanation:
A. indentured servitude was not based on race.
Indentured servitude was enormously common in colonial America. In the 17th century, nearly two thirds of British settlers were indentured servants while eighty percent of European immigrants to America were “redemptioners” (immigrants who needed to indenture themselves to pay for their immigration upon arrival to the colonies, rather than ones who worked out their contracts prior to departure). Most redemptioners came from Britain or Germany and were imported to Philadelphia. The majority were young, under twenty, and died before their contracts were up due to the rough conditions of travel and colonial life.
During the 18th century, indentured contracts became less necessary as the costs of immigration to America went down and African slave labor became increasingly attractive to the large landowners of the prospering colonies. During the Revolution, indentured “imports” basically ceased and the decline continued after the formation of the United States.
