I’ll make you brainlist if you answer correctly As I washed the unfinished food down the drain and
collected the paper plates to throw out, I considered my
ancestors. What would they think of this excess and
waste? They would have spent days on a hunt to take
down a single bison and then painstakingly find a use for
every single part. Was our heritage picnic becoming a
dishonor to their legacy?

Not even the bison "chips," or dung, went to waste. While
the men hunted the great beasts, women and children
collected the droppings. Once the dung had thoroughly
dried in the sun, it served as fuel for cooking fires.

Which of these best describes how the historical description enhances a
reader's understanding of the personal narrative?

A. It compares personal impressions to historical facts to illustrate
how inaccuracies can occur

B. It supports the personal experience of celebrating one's heritage
by explaining how the culture has changed

C. It provides background information to help readers understand
why people no longer need to hunt bison.

D. It reinforces the idea that people were resourceful with bison by
giving an example of how they used the dung

In just over one hundred years, between 1701 and 1810, 252,500 enslaved africans were brought to barbados—an island that occupies only 166 square miles (making it, today, one of the smallest countries in the world). the english then set out to conquer more sugar islands, starting with jamaica, which they took from spain in 1655. in the same period that the 252,500 africans were brought to barbados, 662,400 africans were taken to jamaica. thus, sugar drove more than 900,000 people into slavery, across the atlantic, to barbados and jamaica—and these were just two of the sugar islands. the english were eagerly filling antigua, nevis, saint kitts, and montserrat with slaves and sugar mills. they took over much of dutch guiana for the same reason. seeing the fortunes being made in sugar, the french started their own scramble to turn the half of the island of hispaniola that they controlled (which is now haiti), as well as martinique, guadeloupe, and french guiana (along the south american coast near dutch guiana), into their own sugar colonies, which were filled with hundreds of thousands more african slaves. by 1753, british ships were taking average of 34,250 slaves from africa every year, and by 1768, that number had reached 53,100. –sugar changed the world, marc aronson and marina budhos how do the authors use historical evidence to support their claim? x(a) they use secondary sources to show how french and english monarchs were indifferent to enslaved people. x(b)they use secondary sources to show that enslaved people often fought for their freedom after arriving in the caribbean. the answer is: (c)they use facts from primary sources to show how countries increased the number of enslaved people to produce more sugar. x(d)they use primary source interviews to show that countries could make more money in trading sugar without using enslaved people.
