Slave codes restricted the rights of enslaved people, making it illegal for them to marry, learn to read or write, travel freely, or gather in groups.

Slave codes were laws that regulated the behavior and treatment of enslaved people. They restricted their movements, prohibited them from learning to read and write, and limited their activities. These codes aimed to control the enslaved population and ensure obedience and productivity.
Laws such as the Slave Codes and later Black Codes in the United States prohibited enslaved Africans from learning to read or write. These laws were used to maintain control over enslaved individuals and prevent them from gaining knowledge and autonomy.
