Involuntary servitude is another name for slavery. This is different from a situation such as indentured servitude, in which a person willingly entered into a condition of servitude in exchange for a specific payment, such as the fee for ocean voyage from Europe to America. These arrangements had end times for when the contract would be concluded, and the debt paid in full. Slavery, on the other hand, was involuntary, totally one-sided in terms of benefit, and endured for the duration of the slave's life.
