Why might Olaudah Equiano have believed he had a chance to buy his freedom and move to England after he was purchased by Mr. King, a "charitable and humane" Quaker merchant? (1 point)
1. Quakers tended to be heavily involved in the abolitionist movement.
2. Olaudah Equiano had excellent communication skills in the English language.
3. Olaudah Equiano was himself a Christian.
4. Mr. King promised his freedom, and Olaudah Equiano believed him.
The possible reason for Olaudah Equiano believing he had a chance to buy his freedom and move to England after being purchased by Mr. King, a "charitable and humane" Quaker merchant, would be 4. Mr. King promised his freedom, and Olaudah Equiano believed him. There are no indications in the passage that Quakers were heavily involved in the abolitionist movement. While Equiano's communication skills and Christian faith might have contributed to his eventual freedom, they are not specifically mentioned as reasons for him believing in the opportunity at that time.
