question 9 of 10
what happened as a result of the german coast uprising?
a. enslaved people were allowed more freedoms but were watched closely.
b. the trade in enslaved people was brought to an end along the gulf coast.
c. legislatures in southern states passed strict laws limiting enslaved peoples activities.
d. new orleans became a center for the movement to abolish slavery.

Explanation:

The German Coast Uprising was a significant slave revolt. After such uprisings, slave - holding states typically responded with harsher laws to control enslaved people. Option A is incorrect as it suggests more freedoms (which was not the case). Option B is wrong because the trade in enslaved people continued. Option D is incorrect as New Orleans was a major slave - trading and slave - holding city, not an abolitionist center. Southern legislatures passed strict laws (like slave codes) to limit the activities of enslaved people in response to the German Coast Uprising to prevent future revolts.

Answer:

C. Legislatures in southern states passed strict laws limiting enslaved people's activities.
