Answer:

In the early 19th century, most enslaved men and women worked on large agricultural plantations as house servants or field hands.

Life for enslaved men and women was brutal; they were subject to repression, harsh punishments, and strict racial policing.

Enslaved people adopted a variety of mechanisms to cope with the degrading realities of life on the plantation. They resisted slavery through everyday acts, while also occasionally plotting larger-scale revolts.

Enslaved men and women created their own unique religious culture in the US South, combining elements of Christianity and West African traditions and spiritual beliefs.

Despite all the precautions that white Southerners took to prevent slave rebellions, they did sometimes occur. In 1831, for instance, Nat Turner, an enslaved Virginia man whose owner had taught him to read and who was viewed as a prophet by the other enslaved men and women, organized an insurrection. The uprising began with the killing of Turner’s owner, and within 24 hours, the enslaved rebels managed to kill 60 white people. The revolt was ultimately crushed by law enforcement, and Turner and 13 other slaves were executed. The insurrection terrified white Southerners and resulted in the formulation of even more stringent legal codes governing the behavior of enslaved people.

Melchora Aquino was captured and exiled in _______ for helping the kapituneros
Nady [450]

Answer:

<u>Melchora Aquino was captured and exiled in Guam for helping the kapituneros</u>

Explanation:

Melchora is often called the ''mother of the Philippines revolution''  or ''Tandang Sora''

She is held in high-esteem all over the country and her struggle is still celebrated today.

While she was born into an ordinary family and lived a completely normal life, things changed when she opened a store in her own village. This place gradually became a refuge for rebels fighting against the occupation.

Apart from food and shelter, she was seen as a motherly figure by many in the revolution who would meet her for prayers and blessings.

The Spanish got to know about her actives and when she refused to give information, she was exiled to Guam, only to return when the Americans came in.
