What happened as a result of the slave uprisings

A: A large number of slaves got their freedom

B: A large number of people who were against slavery became less vocal

C: The leaders of the slave uprisings became important and powerful political figures

D: Freed slaves who left South carolina were allowed to return

The correct answer is A: A large number of slaves got their freedom. Slave uprisings played a significant role in challenging and ultimately undermining the institution of slavery. While the exact number of slaves who gained their freedom as a direct result of uprisings varies, successful revolts such as the Haitian Revolution and the Nat Turner Rebellion resulted in the liberation of thousands of enslaved people. These uprisings also sparked fear and panic among slaveholders, leading to increased restrictions and harsher treatment of slaves in some cases.
