Plantation Life
The plantation was the place where thousands o0f slaves would work and bleed in the hot sun to make life easier for the white man. The plantation was where the crops and raw goods were grown to be manufactured and slaves were the manual labor that insured the products were cultivated. If a slave were to slack or become tired most often the owners would become enraged and attack and beat the slaves senselessly. This is why slavery is considered evil because of the forced labor and the evil and cruel beating that went on during this time. The harsh mentality of the slave owners is what cause a major outbreak and force to create an abolition movement.
