Well, there in Ripley was a man named Mr. Rankins, the rest was John, I think. He had a "station" there for escaping slaves. Ohio was a free state, I found out, so once they got across, Mr. Rankins would see to them. We went at night so we could continue back for more and to be sure no slave catchers would follow us there.

Mr. Rankins had a big light about thirty feet high up and it burned all night. It meant freedom for slaves if they could get to that bright flame.

What viewpoint does Mr. Rankins most likely share with the speaker?

Answer:

C) Taking personal risks is worthwhile if it helps others gain their freedom.

Explanation:

The question above is related to the different narratives of the African slaves in America. Among the characters mentioned in the narrative was Mr. Rankins. He is said to have helped many slaves escape from their owners by letting them cross the river from Virginia or Kentucky. This was considered a personal risk on his end because the owners of the slaves could also shoot him if they found out that he was helping free the slaves.

So, this explains the answer.
