Bcl Read the passage from Sugar Changed the World.
Which sentence best states the authors' claim in this
passage?
Sugar was the connection, the tie, between slavery
and freedom. In order to create sugar, Europeans and
colonists in the Americas destroyed Africans, turned
them into objects. Just at that very same moment,
Europeans-at home and across the Atlantic-decided
that they could no longer stand being objects
themselves. They each needed to vote, to speak out,
to challenge the rules of crowned kings and royal
princes. How could that be? Why did people keep
speaking of equality while profiting from slaves? In
fact, the global hunger for slave-grown sugar led
directly to the end of slavery. Following the strand of
sugar and slavery leads directly into the tumult of the
Age of Revolutions. For in North America, then
England, France, Haiti, and once again North America,
the Age of Sugar brought about the great, final clash
between freedom and slavery.
o Economic demand for sugar led to political pressure
to end enslavement.
The growing demand for sugar made the lives of
enslaved people even worse.
Turning Africans into objects was important for the
sugar industry to succeed.
Monarchies became increasingly strong and popular
during the Age of Sugar.
