Read the passage from Sugar Changed the World. By the 1800s, it was clear that the Age of Sugarâthat combination of enslavement, factories, and global tradeâwas replacing the Age of Honey, when people ate local foods, lived on the land of their ancestors, and valued tradition over change. Sugar was the product of the slave and the addiction of the poor factory workerâthe meeting place of the barbarism of overseers such as Thomas Thistlewood and the rigid new economy. And yet, for that very reason, sugar also became the lynchpin of the struggle for freedom. When we talk about Atlantic slavery, we must describe sugar Hell; and yet that is only part of the story. Africans were at the heart of this great change in the economy, indeed in the lives of people throughout the world. Africans were the true global citizensâadjusting to a new land, a new religion, even to other Africans they would never have met in their homelands. Their labor made the Age of Sugarâthe Industrial Ageâpossible. We should not see the enslaved people simply as victims, but rather as actorsâas the heralds of the interconnected world in which we all live today. And indeed, it was when the enslaved Africans began to speakâin words and in actionsâwhen Europeans began to see them as human, that the Age of Sugar also became the Age of Freedom. Which text evidence best supports the authors' claim and purpose? "Sugar was the product of the slave and the addiction of the poor factory workerâthe meeting place of the barbarism of overseers such as Thomas Thistlewood and the rigid new economy.â "When we talk about Atlantic slavery, we must describe sugar Hell; and yet that is only part of the story." "Africans were the true global citizensâadjusting to a new land, a new religion, even to other Africans they would never have met in their homelands." "And indeed, it was when the enslaved Africans began to speakâin words and in actionsâwhen Europeans began to see them as human, that the Age of Sugar also became the Age of Freedom."
