Answer:

D. They openly accepted their bondage and strove to create close relationships with their owners.

Explanation:

Two institutions in the life of slaves - the church and the family - became the objects of the most detailed critical analysis of historians. The vitality, worldview and hallmarks of the rite of religion of slaves pointed to the flexibility and vitality of the African cultural heritage and the extent to which blacks managed to resist the dehumanizing influence of the “special institution” of the South. Slaves rejected the interpretation of Christianity, which was professed by whites and which emphasized the need for humility and promised deliverance from suffering not on earth, but in the afterlife. On the contrary, they began to consider themselves as God's chosen people, like the children of Israel, and their slavish dependence and possible freedom in the future - as part of a predetermined divine plan.

Spirituals – songs of black American slaves - arose in the southern states and generalized African and Anglo-Celtic artistic traditions. They are mostly associated with biblical images, but biblical motifs are "reduced," combined with a narrative of everyday life.

Despite the targeted and coordinated prohibitions of slave owners, slaves managed to create their own communities and played an active role in the life of the region.

Гnder official law, marriages between slaves were recognized as invalid. But the black spouses themselves took them very seriously, creating strong monogamous families.

KiRa [710]

The "Dark Age" in the Indian Empire was a period known for a series of rebellions that occurred against the ruling Kushanas. This happened due to the lack of legitimacy by them during the beginning of the 4th century. This created many small kingdoms within the provinces of India and fractured the empire. A lot of unregulated commerce happened during these provinces and there was little to no control by the Empire.  

However, when Samudragupta rose to power, he started a campaign to unify the territories of India. Gradually annexing province by province as he went through them. This brought order as the trade was now regulated by one only entity which was the Empire.
