Which of these does not describe the southern states? a they were concerned with people's rights. b they did not want to change slavery laws. c they were leaders in agriculture. d they used slaves for cheap labor.

The correct answer is A. They were concerned with people's rights.

Explanation:

From the first arrival of colonizers to the U.S. territory to multiple centuries after this, there were remarkable differences between the states that were created in the South and those in the North. In the case of the South, these states developed an economy mainly based on agriculture and became a leader in it, but this also implied the implementation and legitimation of slavery as it provided cheap labor that was needed in the huge plantations that existed in the South.

Due to this, the southern states were quite reluctant to change slavery laws and approve the abolition of slavery, also they were criticized for not defending the rights of people especially those of slaves and later those of freed slaves and black people. Thus, the statement that does not describe the southern states is "they were concerned with people's rights" because due to slavery it was the opposite.
