Slaves weren't considered "people" so no one felt bad and there were no laws against unfair treatment of people. Because it was okay to exploit them, they could be forced to do a lot of work for no pay. This results in a lot of profit for the slave owner.

How did whites treat the slaves?

Most of the whites treated the slaves horribly. Some treated them fair, but most treated them horribly. They weren't treated like the whites, there were basically treated like dirty rags. The slaves were taken away from their families and never saw them again unless they were freed or ran away. When slaves ran away the got caught. The slave owners killed the slaves by beating them to death.. Nobody wants to be treated like that. They even had little kids working as slaves, the kids only got two shirts a year, and if they got worn out they wouldnt have to go bare naked. Life wasn't easy as a slave.
