What did William Richardson Davie think about slave trade?
Many of us could probably agree that it would be hard to read the mind of a man who has been dead for over one-hundred years. Davie was a republican who strongly believed in the ratification of the Constitution and the necessity of a strong government. Note: strong does not mean tyrannical, only that it would have the power to accomplish things. In knowing that he believed in these things I would say it would be safe too assume he did not agree with slave trade. I believe that in Davie's eyes slave trade would only hold the country back from focussing on more important matters such as westward expansion.

First of all the slave trade was started. many black people turned againts eachother, and the population decreased dramaticly in africa, because of all of the slaves used as tools in other countrys. britain traded goods with these countries such as sugar, rum, nicotine, cotton, tobbaco and many more. when these cheep luxuries came into fashion, everyone wanted some. a have to have. the slave trade build britain up to be a powerfull nd rich empire, so in some way there were positive benifits for britain. however on the other side of the boat were the poor slaves. these slaves, some killed off suicide genral hygeine or lack of food, where cramped into large ship and forced to work in jamica for life. and so this had a very negative effect on africa. overtime these luxirous cheep treats became like drugs. we endulge to much into these substances and some people may refer to them as drugs. so it just shows how much opinions change overtime.

do you think that skilled slaves had advantages over other slaves?
Well, yes, in general. If a slave knew how to do something that was of extra value to their owner/master, and hard to replace, then it is possible that they might be granted more leniency and flexibility than another slave that might be easier to replace. Depending on the owner though, all slaves could be working with a fear motivation and punished regularly for disobedience. In other cases, an owner would treat slaves more like family, having grown up with them... expecting deference, but also allowing for personalities and the occasional refusal. Also, in general, slaves were a large investment, and theirs lives typically wouldn't be thrown away for nothing... skilled slaves, especially with skills where they could be in the house during the day rather than in the fields, might help them to learn more and survive or even escape, depending on the circumstance.
