Explanation:

The passage mentions that enslaved people were fighting for principles learned from Europeans and Americans. It describes the difficult conditions they faced as motivation for fighting, and also how revolutionary ideas like those of the French Revolution and American independence spread to them. Information about organizing the meeting in Alligator Woods isn't relevant to the claim about fighting for principles. Specifics about how the English freed enslaved people aren't in the passage. Examples of revolutionary ideas from other countries are part of the support as they show the source of the principles the enslaved were fighting for.

Answer:

C. descriptions of the difficult conditions the enslaved people faced
D. examples of revolutionary ideas from other countries
