    Since the statements referred by the question weren't given, let's see what the questions make us think about the writing of history.

    Using the terms historians use, we say that Rhonda's beliefs follow the idea of a history made from bottom-up.

    This is a way of understanding History rooted in two ideas:

    I) History, as it happens, is more often than not really made by the majorities, that is, by the people who are the workers in the production of goods and in the social reproduction: be it medieval peasants from the 1400s, be it industrial workers from the 1800s.

    II) So it follows that historical research should follow this way of things. If history is made by workers, peasants, merchants, doesn't make sense to write a history book, for example, where the protagonists are kings and nobles. The protagonists of historical researches should be peasants and poor people.

    The correct statement will be the one that addresses these ideas.
