Read the passage from sugar changed the world. the end of slavery was a great step for human rights. but what did it mean on the sugar plantations—which had depended on extremely cheap labor to keep up with the twenty-four-hour cycle from harvest to mill? in 1836, the same john gladstone whose sugar estate had exhibited the chained body of the slave leader quamina wrote to a shipping company. gladstone asked it to provide a hundred workers (the slang name was "coolies") from india to labor on his plantations. gladstone's first ships, the whitby, carrying 249 passengers, and the hesperus, carrying 244, sailed for demerara in 1838. what evidence do the authors include to support the central idea that the sugar plantations' cheap labor source changed from enslaved people to indentured indians? a. the sugar plantations depended on cheap labor. b. the sugar plantations had a 24-hour cycle. c. gladstone asked the shipping company to provide workers. d. gladstone exhibited the chained body of quamina.

The correct answer is C.

In this passage of "Sugar Changed the World", the author shows that the cheap labour source changed from slaves to indentured indiands by explaining that Gladstone had to ask a shipping company to send him new workers for his plantation.

Since black slaves had been granted freedom, they were no longer the source of extremely cheap labour that had allowed sugar plantations to be so successful. Therefore, the owners of the plantations had to look for cheap manpower in a different group of people. In this case, Indians.

The correct answer is C. Gladstone asked the shipping company to provide workers.

This is the evidence that Glastone transitioned from using slave labor to hiring low wage workers for his sugar plantations. The rest of the choices are true, but are not the main support.

in this situation is very difficult to think about development. it's rather impossible.
