Why was slavery accepted?
From a historical standpoint, most nations had some period of slavery early on. Cheap, expliotable labor is very attractive to early developing nations. This is even more so when labor is dangerous and 'expendable' labor is needed. Pre renessance it was common that enemies were taken as slaves, galiators, etc.. Slave trade flourished in ancient times depending ont he region. As the 1600s drew near changes in human society started to see resistence to older, considerable more barbaric practices. With growing "Rules of Engagement" and war ettiquete the exploitation of enemy soldiers and civilians was growing less acceptable. The exploitation of far-away labor become more attractive. It was politcally risky to make a neighbor a slave but getting slaves from far away places fared better. With a vastly different ethnic look it was easier to segregate the slaves from non-slaves. The dark skinned African tribes by the colonial times made an excellent target for early colonies. Different Look? Check. Fragmented Tribal Societies with no strong resistence? Check. In the modern scope Africa was exploitable for slavery. Not only did rival tribes, per some documentation, sell captured enemies to slave traders, but with a technological edge it wasn't hard to capture an entire village. Once the slave trade took root the profit margins were far too attractive to ignore. As with business, those that were not fans of slavery simple couldn't compete with the nearly free labor so many, to remain competitive, compromised personal morals in the name of being competitive. When looking at slavery as a whole it amounts to exploiting people for maximum profit and people are apt to ignore the cost of human life when something is cheap. Sweatshops, child labor, and human exploitation has not disappeared in the 21st century. $200 dollar shoes made by people earning 12 cents a day still happens. Stop and think about who made the things you use and what kind of treatment they get. Even slaves were fed so you cannot measure the concept of a slave solely on an exchange of service for reward. Slavery doesn't require chaines and without shackles even more people are willing to accept the rewards of cheap labor and ignore how those that provided that labor are treated.
