Answer:The passage can be found in the attached file.

The details that the authors include to support the claim in the passage are:

B. explanations of how revolutionary ideas spread to Saint Domingue

D. examples of revolutionary ideas from other countries.

The passage belongs to the book "Sugar Changed the World," in which Marc Aronson and Marina Budhos show the connection between sugar and history. The focus of the passage is on ideas of freedom and equality.

To support that focus, authors include examples for what the ideas were and explanations of how they spread in Saint Domingue.

They explain that the French Revolution ideas of "liberty, equality, and fraternity" and the idea of "all men are created equal" from the American independence inspired the men.

Boats coming from France brought with them people with those ideas.

Also, former slaves from Saint Domingue fought in the war for independence in the US, which is why they learned those ideas.

In conclusion, the details included by the authors to support the focus and claim in the passage are found in letters B and D.
