Answer to Question #102314 in History for Mila De Armas

Question

There were differing versions of "freedom" and "liberty" among the various groups you read about in chapter 1. What are examples of these differing versions, and how did they shape early encounters between Europeans, Native Americans, and Africans?

Answer 1

1, Economic, Property, and Land freedom sought by the Europeans through venture and capture of American land which led to accumulation of wealth and venture capitalists.

2, Gender based and religion freedom especially due to property inheritance, marriage, and social setup of the native customs between the three different groups. Called for equality and appreciation of women in different social levels.

3, Slavery and colonization freedom especially by the Africans which led to demand for anti slavery states due to oppressive nature of engagement.
