Slavery is the practice of owning another human being for use of free labor or personal serventry. The practice of slavery has been officially legally outlawed worldwide as it is considered inhumane, cruel, and one of the worst stains on human history. In the United States, slavery was prominent in the southeast, where African Americans were sold and bartered and used to tend to cotton fields. Division over whether slavery should be expanded westward as the US expanded was the direct cause of the American Civil War.

Slavery was a serious thing that affected a lot of people's lives, women typically worked in the house because of the whole women in kitchen thing but also helped take care of the home owners kids or helped the wife, men typically did hard labor and children typically worked with their parents or were given / sold away. Many slaves were assaulted in multiple ways and were torn away from their families 95% of the time, due to this a lot of slaves tried avoiding having kids.  A lot of what actually happened was covered up or was ignored by modern day historians
