Question

question 2 of 10
which of the following groups owned property in saint - domingue, but still largely supported the haitian revolution?
a. african slaves
b. french aristocrats
c. affranchis
d. poor whites

Explanation:

The affranchis (free people of color) in Saint - Domingue owned property but faced discrimination. They supported the Haitian Revolution as they sought greater equality and an end to the racial hierarchy that limited their rights despite their property - owning status. African slaves were the most oppressed group but did not own property in the traditional sense relevant here. French aristocrats had privileges and no reason to support a revolution that would undermine their power. Poor whites also had some privileges compared to the affranchis and slaves and were not the property - owning group that supported the revolution in the described way.

Answer:

C. Affranchis
