Jazz was born in Louisiana. Could it be that a population of teenagers, almost all of them male, were inspired to develop their

own music as a way to speak, to compete, to announce who they were to the world? Bomba in Puerto Rico, Maculelê in Brazil, jazz in Louisiana—all gave people a chance to be alive, to be human, to have ideas, and dreams, and passions when their owners claimed they were just cogs in a machinery built to produce sugar. The sugar workers spoke in another way too. In 1811, Charles Deslondes, a free person of color from Saint-Domingue, led what is sometimes called the largest slave revolt in US history. He gathered slaves to attack a plantation, then head down toward New Orleans. Met by troops composed of both blacks and whites, some sixty-six slaves were killed, as well as two whites. The rebellion failed. But it is a sign of the strong link between Louisiana and Haiti. Whites remembered their rule on the island; blacks remembered their fight for freedom.
How does this passage say free blacks and enslaved people expressed themselves, their ideas, and their passions? Check all that apply.
A) spoken word
B) dreams
C) revolt
D) hard work
E) music
