Read the passage from sugar changed the world. the enslaved people on saint domingue were not merely fighting against the terrible conditions on the island. they were fighting for principles that they had learned from europeans and americans—from people similar to their own slave masters. the trio of great principles behind the french revolution that began in 1789 consisted of "liberty, equality, fraternity" (brotherhood). as boats arrived in saint domingue from france, slaves learned that a revolution was going on in the name of human rights. already, they'd been given a taste of great change because of a revolution closer to home. in 1779, a regiment of free blacks from saint domingue went to america to join in the fight for independence. they brought home with them the idea that "all men are created equal." two years after the meeting in alligator woods, on august 29, 1793, the leading french official on saint domingue realized that there was no point in opposing toussaint and his armies. the slaves had freed themselves. and the following february, paris agreed. the ideal of brotherhood announced by the revolutionaries of paris finally included the sugar workers of saint domingue. which details do the authors include to support the claim in this passage? select two options. information about organizing the meeting in alligator woods explanations of how revolutionary ideas spread to saint domingue descriptions of the difficult conditions the enslaved people faced examples of revolutionary ideas from other countries specifics about how the english freed the enslaved people
