Most slaves would stop working during the slave rebellions that broke out. This was a form of boycotting due to their rough living conditions.
The southern colonies had more slaves due to their reliance on labor-intensive crops like tobacco, rice, and cotton. The strict slave codes were a means to control the large enslaved population and prevent uprisings or rebellions. The economic and social structure of the southern colonies was heavily dependent on slavery, leading to harsher regulations to maintain the status quo.
The Fugitive Slave Act most favored the interests of slaveholders in the Southern states by providing legal support for the capture and return of escaped slaves. The act required Northerners to assist in capturing and returning escaped slaves, even if they did not agree with the institution of slavery.
Since slaves were considered to be property, their fate was determined by the will of their owner. Sometimes a slave owner would direct that some or all of his slaves would be freed after his death, although that was not the most usual kind of will. In most cases, slaves would be inherited, like all the other property of the deceased slave owner, by the designated heir, usually the children of the slave owner.
Slavery is illegal in most countries, but I'm sure slaves are sold on the black market, which is also illegal. So, if you live in a country where you cannot have slave, hire a butler or servant.
the slave code was a law saying if a slave owner was to killed one of his slaves he would not be punished.

Most sources referred to such people as "slave-owners" or "slave-masters."
Rome took prisoners from conquered lands brought them to Italy, and forced them into slavery. By 100 B.C. forty percent of the people living in Italy were enslaved. Some slaves were well educated and those who earned wages usually could buy their freedom. But most slaves were treated terribly, and the terrible treatment lead to many slave rebellions.

The most important reason that the slave trade thrived was economic; the shipping companies and slave dealers made money in obtaining and selling slaves, and the slave owners used slaves as a "free" labor force to earn money for themselves.
No, and most abolitionists were white, because most blacks were slaves. Some blacks might have contributed by doing stuff as an abolitionist, but an abolitionist did not have to be a slave. (More appropreatly slaves couldent, only freed slaves could do anything)
