Answer:  "They were not just labor, not just bodies born to work and die."

This is the sentence that best supports the idea that enslaved people were more than mercilessly treated workers. Because of the stories we think of when we talk about slavery, there is a tendency to think of enslaved people as beings with absolutely no agency, and no inner life besides that of work. However, enslaved people also had goals, dreams, fun. They celebrated things, fell in love and laughed. In this text, the author wants us to remember this fact.

Why have Latin American elites often resisted reforms?
Oxana [17]
Reduces their power--elites in Latin America control economic and political aspects of society. Reforms would provide more groups with rights, reducing the influence of the elite.

In any country, elites often control the means of production and the political system. Reforms, especially coming from lower classes or oppressed groups, would potentially reduce the power and influence the elite group has. This has been true through many revolutionary movements.
