Read the following historical perspectives from two modern-day historians. Which of the following explains why Historian A menti

ons the issue of slavery while Historian B does not?
Historian A:
The American Revolution was caused by the American colonists’ greedy desire for more money. They were simply tired of paying their fair share of taxes to the British government, even though British troops protected the colonies during the French and Indian War! Furthermore, their claims to be fighting for freedom and liberty are totally wrong. Many of the colonists still owned slaves at the time of the Revolution! The traitorous American colonists simply wanted to steal land that was already claimed by Great Britain.
Historian B:
The American Revolution was completely justified due to Great Britain’s repeated abuse of the colonists. The British passed enormous taxes on goods in the colonies, even though the Americans had no say in the British government. British soldiers were also allowed to live in American houses and eat common people’s food without paying. During the Boston Massacre, British soldiers even fired their muskets into a crowd of civilians! Under such oppressive conditions, it’s no wonder that the patriotic colonists would want to fight for the freedom and liberty of all people!
A. Historian B wants to make the British appear to be disinterested in American affairs, including the terrible institution of slavery.
B. Historian A wants to make the colonists appear in a negative light by suggesting that they did not really believe in freedom for all.
C. Historian A is using slavery as a metaphor to argue that the American colonists have treated their British leaders poorly.
D. Historian B is making a purely economic argument, so there is no need for him to mention the institution of slavery.

svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The weakened passengers could survive the difficult journey because they received assistance from the native people living on the Cape.

It should be noted that it was a difficult journey and the Pilgrims survived through the left over food that they had. Also, the Wampanoag Indians of the eastern part of Massachusetts  also played a pivotal role as they helped the Pilgrims survive in this new land by teaching them how the land was cultivated.

In conclusion, the correct option is B "They received assistance from the native people living on the Cape"
