Semmy [17]3 years ago

In the book he wrote, Equiano displayed his belief that free blacks often suffered worse conditions than slaves. In the W<span>est Indies, he met a free black </span>man<span> whose name was Joseph </span>Clipson<span>. </span>Clipson's<span> story was the basis of his realization. </span>Clipson<span> had freedom but was aggressively spoken to by a Bermuda captain who insisted that </span>Clipson<span> was a slave and that he had to take him to Jamaica. </span>Clipson protested but he was ignored and was forced to go aboard the captain's ship. Equiano wrote on his book that he had thought only slavery was dreadful, but the condition of a free negro was just as equally so. Their freedom was minimal and they lived in fear of constant abuses. There were no courts to listen to them and no law would protect their properties. When Equiano became a free black, he also encountered the same situation. Free blacks lived in an uncertain middle ground between slavery and freedom.<span> </span>

Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

The Sung dynasty became more democratic than it was before as the Emperor had to pay more attention to the middle class and their demands rather than that of the higher class.

Many intelligent scholars, brilliant merchants, great artists, etc. emerged from the middle class.

The middle class became more dominant in cultural and political affairs.

The distribution of wealth and prosperity witnessed a balance as it began penetrating down to even the lowest strata of society.

netineya [11]

The correct answer is A) building shelters.

The pioneers’ first priority was building shelters.

Life was difficult for pioneers who decided to leave their former lands and travel to the west in the time if US history called "the westward expansion." The Oregon Trail was also a difficult road to cross. Many people could complete it. Hunger was a major issue.

Pioneers had to build their shelters to endure climate conditions, clear the land for farming. However, the opportunity to have their own portion of land motivated many farjmers, former slaves, and immigrants.
