Read the passage from sugar changed the world. the english public, now consuming some eighteen pounds of sugar a year, knew little about the lives of the enslaved africans whose labor sweetened their meals. worse yet, every englishman who hammered the wood, sewed the sails, manufactured the rope for slave ships, or built the barrels to hold slave-harvested sugar made his money from the slave trade. the english were getting richer because africans were being turned into property. clarkson and others who believed as he did, who in the coming decades would be called abolitionists, realized that while that link gave the english a stake in slavery, it also gave the antislavery forces an opportunity. if they could reverse the flow—make the horrors of slavery visible to those who benefited from it—they might be able to end the vile practice forever. the abolitionists were brilliant. they created the most effective public relations campaign in history, inventing techniques that we use to this day. when he spoke, clarkson brandished whips and handcuffs used on slaves; he published testimonials from sailors and ship doctors who described the atrocities and punishments on slave ships. when olaudah equiano published his memoir, he educated his readers about the horrors of the slave trade. and then, when the english began to understand what slavery really was, clarkson and others organized what we would call a boycott of "the blood-sweetened beverage." which excerpt from the passage best states the authors' claim? "the english were getting richer because africans were being turned into property." ". . while that link gave the english a stake in slavery, it also gave the antislavery forces an opportunity." "they created the most effective public relations campaign in history, inventing techniques that we use to this day." ". . clarkson and others organized what we would call a boycott of 'the blood-sweetened beverage.'"

The answer is:

"They created the most effective public relations campaign in history, inventing techniques that we use to this day."

In the excerpt from "Sugar Changed the World," the author Marina Budhos makes reference to how Clarkson and other abolitionists made the abominations of the slavery system evident to those who made a profit out of it. For example, the exhibition of whips, handcuffs, testimonials and Equiano's memoir.

In the passage from Sugar Changed the World, the author provides some context about slavery in England to later on describe the efforts of the abolitionists to end this practice. The text explains the different techniques they used to make a campaign that helped them inform people about the cruelty of slavery. Therefore, the excerpt that best states the author's claim is C: They created the most effective public relations campaign in history, inventing techniques that we use to this day"

i’m writing a memoir and i’ve been given the great suggestion of placing a ‘sub-narrative’ within some of the chapters – sort of, what was going on with me in the grand scheme of things.

i was wondering how to format this so that it is very obvious we are stepping out the of story.

firstly is a change in font from serif to sans workable? i also use dashes for a scene change. was thinking of using a different scene-changer too.

here’s a (shortened) example:

university – or what’s known as ‘uni’ in australia – were some of the best days of my life. where else do you get to potter around in a great location, have very little responsibility, learn lots of things, do lots of things and walk out four years later with a bonus – a degree!

with my university years i had immersed myself into community of intelligent ambitious people. generally everyone had a confidence about themselves. they knew where they were going in life and weren’t threatened by others.

next normal paragraph continues here…

(sorry couldn’t show the fonts in this comment field)

too much?
