Answer: true
had to put something here
I would say that one assumption is the superiority of Europeans over Africans: their belief that somehow they had the right to enslave other people.
This could be connected to their racism (they thought the same of native Americans and there was a discussion whether native Americans have souls) or religious feeling of superiority ("pagans are not the same as Christians"...)
I agree with the answer above, A and B are definititly not true, and D was abit if-fy. C and E however were pretty clear choices to be right answers. So I would go with C and E.
