No. There was never a US Government policy to kill smart slaves.
There is, however, no doubt that many slave owners believed "a literate slave was a dangerous slave" and would stifle attempts to educate slaves, through litigation and/or intimidation.
Starting in the mid 1700's, several states passed laws prohibiting slave education.
While these laws typically did not clarify any consequences for the slaves who might attain literacy, the financial consequences for teachers were clear.

There is no official US policy promoting the killing of smart slaves. Slavery in the US was, however, a brutal and dehumanizing institution where slave owners exerted control over their slaves through various means, including violence. Smart slaves would often face harsh punishment and repression to maintain control.
James Henley Thornwell, a pro-slavery advocate, argued that when slaves obeyed their masters, they were fulfilling their God-ordained roles and contributing to the stability of society. Thornwell believed that obedience to masters was a form of religious duty for slaves.
The basis for the US philosophy during the Cold War was containment. This policy aimed to prevent the spread of communism by containing its influence, primarily through military, economic, and diplomatic means. The US believed in stopping the expansion of the Soviet Union and communist ideologies to protect its interests and promote democracy worldwide.
Friedrich Nietzsche, a German philosopher, is credited with the quote "That which does not kill us makes us stronger." The idea conveys the notion that overcoming challenges and adversity can lead to personal growth and strength.
Slaves were responsible for carrying out tasks assigned by their masters, which could include working in agricultural fields, household chores, or performing skilled labor. They had little to no control over their own lives and were subject to the whims and demands of their owners.
This statement is attributed to Athens. The Athenians believed in controlling the surrounding city-states to create a protective buffer zone that would safeguard their own interests and security. This aggressive foreign policy was a key aspect of Athenian imperialism during the Peloponnesian War.
No. That policy enabled the Nazis to kill very many Jews who could have been saved.
John O'Sullivan said that the US destiny was to end world hunger, free the slaves, to carry a big stick, kill Lee Harvey Oswald, kill the Nazis, carry a big stick, and charity for all.
Slavery is now illegal in the US. Therefore there should be no slaves in the US today.
almost as smart as us, humans:)
Yes. They gave them blankets with smallpox and they killed whole villages on purpose. Sadly the unwritten policy of the US government was the only good Indian was a dead one. They did everything they could to kill as many Native Americans as they could. The government moved them off hunting grounds, sent troops to kill and raid villages, removed children to government schools, killed off buffalo, and these things were just a continuation of the European policy in North America. Columbus wrote in his diary that the natives he meet would make good slaves. The Spanish did make the Native Americans in the southwest slaves for their mines.
The Energy Policy Act of 2005 states that electric meters "Smart Meters" are to be made available to those who want it. However, it is not a mandate. States do not outlaw it, but there are some cities, particularly in California that ban the Smart Meter.
