Answer: Bill of Rights ratified

Step-by-step explanation:

Option A is incorrect because the slave trade was limited after the colonies received their independence due to some of the new states passing legislature against it.

Option B is equally wrong because the American colonies declared independence before Shay's rebellion.

Option C is wrong as well because the Boston Tea party was also before Shay's rebellion.

This leave option D which is correct because the Bill of Rights was added into the Constitution at the Constitutional Convention.
