Explanation:
A. Bacon's Rebellion was caused by dissatisfaction among the colonists from high taxes, low prices for tobacco, and anger towards Sir Berkeley because he provided special privileges that were given to those close to the Berkeley. In addition, Berkeley told the Indians that colonists would not expand further into the west, which greatly angered the colonists because they wanted more land. The biggest effect of this revolt was that people began to turn away from indentured servants and the slave trade grew. This was because the ruling class was surprised and worried that black servants and white colonists had banded together against them, leading them to be more harsh on black slaves.
Shay's Rebellion was caused by a rise in taxes and because a debt crisis was about to lead many colonists to be imprisoned. The rebellion occurred in protest of these taxes and to prevent the imprisonment of the colonists. As a result of the violence, people called for the Constitutional Convention because the rebellion exposed governmental weakness (especially flaws in the Articles of Confederation) and needed a way to prevent future rebellions.
B. Bacon's Rebellion best reflects the statement above. As people began to settle and create distinctive cultures in the Virginia colonies, social and ethnic tensions fueled between them and the Native Indians as the colonists kept wanting more of their land. These tensions resulted in Bacon's Rebellion, which was a violent protest to express grievances to their governor. Their governor promised the natives that the colonists would not expand any further, a decision that infuriated the Virginia colonists because that was against their desire. They wanted to keep expanding and taking more Indian land.
C. Bacon's Rebellion is a better choice than the Whiskey Rebellion because Bacon's Rebellion deals with ethnic tensions much more than the Whiskey Rebellion. Both of these had many similarities, such as that backcountry settlers violently revolted to protest something that the ruling class did. However, a main difference is that Bacon's Rebellion protested against Native Americans, a group of people whose social and ethnic cultures were extremely different from the colonists. In contrast, the Whiskey Rebellion was a protest about the government, and both the colonists and the politicians were white American citizens, therefore meaning that these two groups of people did not have social/ethnic cultures that were as contrasting.
