How did the slave children eat? Why do you think Douglass' master fed them this way?

English
1 answer:
zaharov [31]3 years ago
7 0
Well they would generally be fed coarse corn meal boiled, which they referred to as mush. What they were fed was enough to sustain grown men and women through their backbreaking labors in the field.

This what by any means considered a luxury meal and they often grew their own crops and stole just to get a good meal. I believe they were treated that way as a means of showing them how minuscule they were, how they were the equivalent of pigs. A way to establish where they stood and where their master stood, a way to oppress and subjugate them.

Which main idea does the supporting detail "Food companies spend more
kap26 [50]

Answer: D. Food companies think selling food to kids is important.

Explanation:

When money is spent by businesses it is because they believe that what they are spending on is important and has the potential to yield a profitable outcome for their shareholders.

If food companies are therefore spending so much money to advertise to children, they must think that advertising to children is very important.
