2. Which phrase from the text does the author use to
support their argument that a wide variety of people
worked for the Underground Railroad?
O
A
“Railroad activists helped individual fugitive
slaves find the light of freedom." (Paragraph 2)
B
"Often whites would pretend to be the masters of
fugitives to prevent their capture. Sometimes
lighter-skinned African Americans took this role."
(Paragraph 3)
C
"Most of the time, however, slaves crept
Northward on their own. looking for the signal
that designated the next safe haven." (Paragraph
D "Perhaps the most outstanding conductor of the
Underground Railroad was Harriet Tubman."
(Paragraph 5)

Answer :

I would say B. that is because when it says "whites" that refers to white colored skin people. Plus people back then would be called white because of there skin. Plus it was often "whites" that owned slaves!
