The correct answer is A) African American people born in South Carolina were forced to tend the fields of a master for no wages.

The 13th Amendment (passed in 1865) made slavery and involuntary servitude illegal. This means that a person must be paid for their work. This is why scenario A would be the correct answer, as the person is essential enslaved to the plantation owner in this scenario.
