They were forced to do extreme labor and subjected to poor nutrition and living areas.

This impacted their quality of life as the people they worked for didn't care about their health or living situations. This also would negatively impact their mental health as they were viewed as less than human and didn't have the freedom they were told they would have (The Colombian Exchange: A History of Disease, Food, and Ideals, 2010).]]> 2023-04-11 14:11:00 UTC https://padlet.com/sabol024/mp0d2fy765dxnkwy/wish/2550231231
