Do they think that men who have been able to enjoy the blessing of liberty will calmly see it snatched away? They supported thei

r chains only so long as they did not know any condition of life more happy than that of slavery. But to-day when they have left it, if they had a thousand lives they would sacrifice them all rather than be forced into slavery again. But no, the same hand which has broken our chains will not enslave us anew. I declare to you to re-establish slavery would be to attempt the impossible: we have known how to face dangers to obtain our liberty, we shall know how to brave death to maintain it. —Toussaint L'Ouverture, 1797
What is the main idea of Toussaint L'Ouverture’s argument in this passage?

It would be impossible to re-enslave Haitians since they understand the value of freedom.
Once freedom can be achieved, the people will not appreciate what they have won.
The people of Haiti are unwilling to fight against slavery any longer.
Freedom is impossible to achieve; the people have been enslaved too long.

Answer: It would be impossible to re-enslave Haitians since they understand the value of freedom.

Toussaint L'Ouverture was the best-known leader of the Haitian Revolution. L'Ouverture  helped transform the Black insurgency into a revolutionary movement, which made Saint-Domingue, the most prosperous slave colony of the time, into the first free colonial society and the first one to reject race as a basis of social ranking. His actions made the colony a <em>de facto</em> autonomous colony. Moreover, its constitution proclaimed him governor for life.

How did the identities of colonizing and indigenous American societies changes as a result of contact in the Americas?
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

they were affected by diseases and war

Explanation:

The descendants of Native American arrived over soo many years ago from some parts of Asia, leading to the development of different types of cultures and societies. The Europeans began to colonize them from 1492 and the population of these indigenous Americans began to go down as a result of diseases that was inflicted on them and war waged against them. Chicken pox and measles brought from Asia had little impacts on the Europeans but killed Native Americans in numbers because they were not immune to them.

The Native Americans were fought against and removed from their lands and discriminatory policies were also put on them which rightly changed their lives.
