Answer:

C: They believed in the superiority of the American culture and tried to teach that along with Christianity.

Explanation:

The best answer to this multiple-choice question is "C" because many Protestant missionaries believed that religion and lifestyle went hand and hand and that it was necessary to change the lifeways of the Native American people in addition to teaching them about Christianity. Many Protestant missionaries thought it was important the Native American peoples learn to farm. An example of a Protestant missionary to the Northwestern United States is the Reverend Cushing Eells.

There was a lot of variation, however, in the different styles of performing mission work. Catholic priests were more simple in their approach and allowed simple demonstrations of Christian faith from the Native American communities. An example of a Catholic Priest who was a missionary to the Northwestern United States was Father Pierre-Jean De Smet.

jeka94

Answer:Slave life varied greatly depending on many factors.

Life on the fields meant working sunup to sundown six days a week and having food sometimes not suitable for an animal to eat. Plantation slaves lived in small shacks with a dirt floor and little or no furniture. Life on large plantations with a cruel overseer was oftentimes the worst. However, work for a small farm owner who was not doing well could mean not being fed.

The stories about cruel overseers were certainly true in some cases. The OVERSEER was paid to get the most work out of the slaves; therefore, overseers often resorted to whatever means was necessary. Sometimes the slaves would drive the overseer off the plantation in desperation. When slaves complained that they were being unfairly treated, slaveholders would most often be very protective of their "property" and would release the overseer.

n some cases, a driver was used rather than an overseer. The difference between the overseer and the DRIVER was simple: drivers were slaves themselves. A driver might be convinced by a master to manage the slaves for better privileges. Drivers were usually hated by the rest of the slaves. These feelings often led to violence.

Large plantations often required some slaves to work in the plantation home. These slaves enjoyed far better circumstances. DOMESTIC SLAVES lived in better quarters and received better food. They sometimes were able to travel with the owner's family. In many cases, a class system developed within the slave community. Domestic slaves did not often associate themselves with plantation slaves. They often aspired to arrange courtships for their children with other domestic slavesExplanation:
