Answer 1

The correct answer is C) rather die than go back to being enslaved

Answer 2

Below I gave the main reason about his beliefs and explain why the answer is option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the passage:

I declare to you to re-establish slavery would be to attempt the impossible: we have known how to face dangers to obtain our liberty, we shall know how to brave death to maintain it. Toussaint L'Ouverture, 1797

To put an end slavery and equal rights: "There can be no slaves in this territory, slavery is abolished forever. All men are born, live and die free and French"; proclaiming the elimination of the obstacles erected by the segregationist system in the labor market regardless of their color.

Finally, hence the answer is option C: rather die than go back to being enslaved
