Slavery began as a means for economic benefits to the nation. Once it is understood that slavery was the very backbone of the American economy, the idea of being enslaved due to race is understood. The slavery of the blacks caused people to realize their own liberty and independence. The South had a class system and there was a growing gap between the rich slave holders and the poor Yeomen farmers. These poor farmers needed a way to feel as if they could be something in comparison to their superiors, and being above someone else satisfied this need. Knowing that blacks were slaves allowed them to feel superior simply because they, as whites, were free, and blacks were not. If they were all one as white, they could all be one against blacks, and the poorer farmers would support the slave owners based on this. Racism seemed to keep a neat social balance in the South.

In most countries it is a crime in case of job preferring based on race and similar situations but not as a personal expression of opinion. Violence based on race is a hate crime.
No, except African slavery still exists. While both types of slavery were based on the need for a cheap labor force and in many cases to control a cultural minority, ancient slavery was based on who was defeated in battle or was sold into slavery (by a poor parent or as a debtor), not nessesarialy race, while American slavery was based on race above everything else. In ancient Rome for example, anyone who was in need of money could sell their son or daughter into slavery, even a Roman. They beleived that slaves were human beings, just of a lower social class. Many famous Romans even encouraged good treatment of slaves on moral grounds. In American slavery, however, African-Americans were seen as inferior and not even human, simply animals or farm equipment.
The number one difference between slavery in America and slavery in ancient Rome was its foundation. American slavery was based on race or skin color. Roman slavery was based on birth. The ancients had no sense of racism. (They did have prejudices against foreigners, but this was based on nationality, not race.) In America, few slaves were freed in comparison to their numbers, while in Rome hundreds of slaves were freed annually. The freed slaves in Rome, although owing a limited service to their former masters, were free to climb the social ladder and many of them did, becoming businessmen, craftsmen, or government officials. In America it was much more difficult, as race and lack of education worked against the freed slave. The ancient slaves always had the hope of freedom, either from their owners or by buying their freedom. An American slave did not have this advantage.

yes
Slavery was based on strong ancient civilizations conquering weaker ones. From ancient times slavery was based on a defeated culture being made slaves by a more powerful culture.
i dont know jeez?
Racial slavery is the process of enslaving a group of people based on the race that they belong to. One of the most familiar and widespread forms of racial slavery was the slavery of blacks in the U.S.
This law says that people who were not white and not Christian could be made slaves. It also says these people were "real estate," that is, property. This shows that the United States had chattel slavery, and that this slavery was based on race and religion.
Slavery became linked with racism through the process of racialization, where African people were systematically dehumanized and categorized as inferior based on their race. This served to justify their enslavement and perpetuate a system of racial hierarchy. Over time, ideas of inherent racial differences and white superiority became deeply ingrained in society, solidifying the association between slavery and racism.
Race and slavery have become almost synonymous because slaves were all the same race. If the majority of slaves were white, this could have extended to the Caucasian race.
In most countries it is a crime in case of job preferring based on race and similar situations but not as a personal expression of opinion. Violence based on race is a hate crime.
