Answer #1

Ans) The most basic purpose of slavery is to rid oneself of work and force the hideous labor upon someone else. Since the time of our more primitive era, societies have taken slaves from war and conquest, and forced them to do their workaday tasks.

- A main cause of the trade was the colonies that European countries were starting to develop. In America, for instance, which was a colony of England, there was a demand for many labourers for the sugar, tobacco and cotton plantations.

-  Not all blacks came as slaves, they were known as FREE blacks. They had freedoms like whites and could vote.
- As slavery started getting bigger, whites started putting restrictions on free blacks because they feared that black slaves would revolt because some were free and they were not.
- The restrictions were harsh enough to turn a free black person into someone's slave.
