The Puritans were opposed to slavery and many Christians, Puritans, and Quakers protested the government because of slavery and helped make the underground railroad to free slaves. The Puritans were in America before slavery. England started the slave trade to America and France provided almost all of the slave transport on ships to America.
The Puritans did agree with slavery. They saw it as in agreement with the Bible, but slavery in the Massachusetts colonies was regarded as slightly less harsh than the slavery in the southern colonies because the Puritans also believed that it was their responsibility to provide for the slaves' well being, both physically and spiritually.Source: http://www.usconstitution.net/consttop_slav.html

In Act One of "The Crucible," the Puritans' attitude toward their slaves is depicted as one of ownership and subjugation. The character Tituba, a slave, is treated with suspicion and is blamed for the town's troubles, reflecting the Puritans' view of slaves as lesser beings who are easily scapegoated. This dynamic illustrates a broader societal belief in the inferiority of enslaved individuals, reinforcing the harsh and controlling nature of Puritan society. Additionally, the fear of witchcraft is used to justify their oppressive treatment of those who are marginalized, including slaves.
