Compromises were reached concerning enslaved people in order to maintain unity among the states, especially between the North and South. The Founding Fathers were concerned about balancing the interests of each region to ensure the new nation's stability. As a result, compromises such as the Three-Fifths Compromise and the Missouri Compromise were made to address issues related to slavery.
Slaves resisted the authority of their owners by performing acts of sabotage, feigning illness or incompetence to disrupt work, and escaping or running away from plantations.
The Three-Fifths Compromise was a compromise reached during the Constitutional Convention of 1787 in the United States, where enslaved individuals were counted as three-fifths of a person for the purposes of taxation and representation in Congress. This compromise allowed slaveholding states to have more political power while dehumanizing and excluding enslaved individuals.

Frederick Douglass escaped from slavery and became a prominent abolitionist. He wrote three books about his experiences as an enslaved person.

Three fifths were slaves
I mean...none directly. They were slaves. THAT was the main problem. The 3/5ths compromise was an attempt by the south to 'have cake and eat it too'. They wanted slaves to be non-persons when it suited their interests, but to count as persons when it suited their interests (such as representation in congress). But if you were a slave, you didn't give a you-know-what about any of that because you were being enslaved. And your children were enslaved. I suppose one could make an argument that the 3/5ths compromise increased the power of the pro-slavery bloc in congress, thereby extending the time that slavery remained legal.
When counting people to determine representation, a slave was counted as three fifths of a person.
Even if we take the earliest possible date for Jewish slavery that the Bible suggests, the Jews were enslaved in Egypt a good three hundred years after the 1750 B.C. completion date of the pyramids. That is, of course, if they were ever slaves in Egypt at all.
The three fifths compromise was the plan that proposed that every five enslaved persons would count as three free persons.
