Hey there!
The term "slave" refers to a sense of possession and dehumanization.
A slave is different than a servant; the term slave implies that they are owned. It is also accepted that the word slave (at the time) justified the harsh treatment they were given. In the eyes of their owners, they were animals. That was the message spread during the time of slaves. Books like "The Heart of Darkness" exhibit this limited and negative view of Africans in general, not just slaves. This view was reflected in culture, in economics, and in religion. Slaves are not entitled to the same humane rights and have no more standing than a horse, oxen, or any other animal that was used to profit and make a living. It also sadly exemplifies how close-minded the world can be, it happens in all cultures all around the world. It reflects human nature.
I hope this helps!

Answer:
Wilson cited Germany's violation of its pledge to suspend unrestricted submarine warfare in the North Atlantic and the Mediterranean, as well as its attempts to entice Mexico into an alliance against the United States, as his reasons for declaring war.
Explanation:
The correct answer is Option D) Stole our natural resources
In the United States declaration of Independence the King of England was held responsible for a number of grievances.
He was accused of burning down towns and villages of the local colonists, destroying their lives and even blundering the seas (talking about the blockade by the British Navy).
However, the King was not specifically called out for 'stealing natural resources'
It should be understood that the initial problems only began due to taxes imposed on the local populations. Things turned out of hand when a small protest turned into a civil war with the French helping the colonists against the British.
