t1651 -
A It freed their children from slavery.
B It freed them, but not their children from slavery.
C It freed them at a certain age.
D It allowed them to work for wages to buy their
freedom.

The correct answer is D. The Dutch West Indies Company's "half freedom" allowed older slaved africans to work for wages to buy their freedom.

Explanation:

During the Dutch presence in what is now New York City, thousands of African slaves were brought to the region by the colonizers.

Later, the government of the Netherlands West Indies Company authorized the oldest slaves of the New Amsterdam colony to obtain economic benefits for their services rendered (and pay certain taxes for it, also benefiting the government), in order to obtain the money needed to buy your freedom. This did not include their children, who were to obtain the benefit of Half Freedom later.
