The use of indigenous labor in Brazil is full of myths in history. It has been discussed from a friendly relationship to the fact that indigenous people would run away because they knew the land and could not adapt to work. False premises can be observed when indigenous people were irregularly enslaved, even with the prohibition of the Portuguese Colony, since the 16th century. The Brazilian Colony sought to establish itself and needed allies, so it did not enslave indigenous people. Indigenous people were enslaved and traded as goods in the ports of São Vicente and Desterro. The tribes fought bravely and performed collective death rituals to avoid surrendering. A model was set up in which the Jesuits would have the main right to the workforce. Therefore, slavery was often denied. Choose the CORRECT alternative:


A) The Brazilian Colony sought to establish itself and needed allies, so it did not enslave indigenous people.
B) Indigenous people were enslaved and traded as goods in the ports of São Vicente and Desterro.
C) The Jesuits would have the main right to the workforce.
