Answer:

C.had certain civil rights and could appeal to the law for justice.

Step-by-step explanation:

Slavery in Africa started in the 15th century and lasted till the 19th century, It involves the forceful transfer of slaves from Africa to Europe and America via the Atlantic ocean and subjecting them to forced labour and other inhumane conditions and treatment. Slaves have to civil rights and could not appeal to the law for justice. They were regarded as properties and not regarded the same as their Caucasian masters, they are the property of their masters and can be treated however he pleases.
