I believe it means back when slavery was around most of the African Americans were in the South and most of them tried to escape but couldn’t.

In late 2001, the United States and its close allies invaded Afghanistan and toppled the Taliban government. The invasion's aims were to dismantle al-Qaeda, which had executed the September 11 attacks, and to deny it a safe base of operations in Afghanistan by removing the Taliban government from power. The United Kingdom was a key ally of the United States, offering support for military action from the start of preparations for the invasion. The invasion followed the Afghan Civil War's 1996–2001 phase between the Taliban and the Northern Alliance groups, which resulted in the Taliban controlling 80% of the country by 2001. The invasion became the first phase of a 20-year long war in the country and marked the beginning of the U.S. War on Terror.

The invasion was unleashed in response to the attacks of September 11, 2001 in the United States, of which this country blamed Osama bin Laden. To begin the invasion, the United States relied on a peculiar interpretation of Article 51 of the Charter of the United Nations, on the right to self-defense.
American 's oppression under British rule, I think
This is a hard one... but I believe it is either C or D. We know that wounded Allied soldiers were a big issue during the war and a big reason as to why the U.S. joined was to gain land and protect its allies that it related to (mainly being Britain). D is also a reasonable answer, but I highly doubt it is the other options. Double check your history book, but I think the answer is C.
