No. His personal slaves that he had on his Mt. Vernon plantation were freed after his death. It will be another 100 years before slavery will be abolished in the United States.
The Spanish response to native Americans was generally to either leave them alone or make them slaves. Many tribes were enslaved for plantation and other hard labor.
badly, they were put into slavery. the americans treated them like dirt..they got sent directly to plantations to become a slave. they were whipped, punched, slapped etc. slaves had no respect. it was not fair.
Plantation owners who suffered damage to their plantations during the Civil War were not owed compensation, because the rebellion, having failed, was deemed to be illegal (had the Confederacy won, it might have chosen to compensate plantation owners). Damage sustained in the course of an illegal rebellion is the fault of those who illegally rebelled. Similarly, former slave owners were not compensated for the loss of their slaves, because the United States no longer recognized that slavery was legal or acceptable; slavery was ended as a morally objectionable practice. It was the slaves who deserved compensation for their unpaid labor, and not the slave owners for the crime of enslaving human beings.
yes because today there are over a million american that were slaves and are in a slavery.
