Before the Civil War, some free African Americans owned slaves and a few also employed white people. They did this because it was in their economic interest to do so.

∙ 13y agoThe American Indians owned many slaves. Here are the figures.
By 1860, the Cherokees had 4,600 slaves; the Choctaws, 2,344; the Creeks, 1,532; the Chickasaws, 975; and the Seminoles, 500. Some Indian slave owners were as harsh and cruel as any white slave master. Indians were often hired to catch runaway slaves; in fact, slave-catching was a lucrative way of life for some Indians, especially the Chickasaws.
