The correct answer is C) Slaves who heard of Congressional support of the Missouri Compromise were encouraged to revolt.

The other options of the question were A) The Missouri Compromise encouraged slaves sold to Missouri families to revolt and run away before they could arrive in the controversial state. B) The Missouri Compromise encouraged slaves to resist revolution in the hopes that those against slavery would soon abolish it in the United States. D) Slaves who heard of Congressional opposition to the Missouri Compromise were encouraged to revolt.

The Missouri Compromise and slave revolution interact within the text in that "Slaves who heard of Congressional support of the Missouri Compromise were encouraged to revolt."

The news about some Congressmen opposition to slavery spread quickly and a black man Denmark Vesey who was not a slave in South Carolina delivered a speech against slavery in the African Methodist Episcopal Church of Charleston and organized a rebellion of slaves in 1822 to escape to the island of Haiti. But the rebellion had a "whistle-blower," and the organizers were killed.
