Yes, enslaved individuals often faced severe physical punishment, including beatings, for various reasons, including disobedience, perceived disrespect, or even arbitrary decisions by their enslavers. There are numerous historical accounts of enslaved people being beaten without provocation or for minor infractions, reflecting the brutal system of control and dehumanization that characterized slavery. This violence was used as a method to instill fear and maintain dominance over enslaved populations.
