First, it is cheaper to employ slaves than to pay workers.
Secondly, the slavers feel the slaves are beneath them, enhancing their feeling of superiority
Thirdly, the slavers can then rationalise their behaviour by arguing that they are giving them a better life, a modicum of education and an introduction to the true god (although the version of Christianity preaches taught that "negroes" were lesser beings).
Although South Africa was the home of apartheid, they never had slaves as such; whereas slavery was an integral part of the USA's southern states.
It is interesting to note the crime of "miscegenation" (the unlawful marriage and/or sex between whites, blacks, reds and yellows) existed in several southern USA states until it was declared unconstitutional in Loving v Virginia 1967.
