2 Life Under Slavery Growing: doubling to 2 million from : majority of slaves are American-born Most slaves (70%) are on large plantations Slave Codes impose harsh punishments; forbid education

3 Slave Code Examples "If any slave resists his master...correc:ng such a slave, and shall happen to be killed in such correc:on...the master shall be free of all punishment...as if such accident never happened. "The slave who, having struck his master, his mistress, or the husband of his mistress, or their children, shall have produced a bruise, or the shedding of blood in the face, shall suffer capital punishment. "Any slave who shall write for any other slave, any pass or free-paper, upon convic:on, shall receive, on his or her back, one hundred lashes for the first offence, and seven hundred lashes for every offence thereafer..."

4 Defending Slavery Justifications Given by Southerners: Bible says it is OK Slavery benefits Africans Slaves are happy Slaves are better off than wage-slaves in the North because they can t be fired
