Jefferson sold slaves for various reasons, including to pay off debts, to settle the estates of deceased family members, or to raise funds for his own expenses.

Slaves were sometimes tasked with overseeing the work and behavior of other slaves, and may have punished them in order to maintain control and prevent rebellion.

Limited rights of plantations.
Slaves were often cleaned, dressed in presentable clothing, and sometimes examined physically by potential buyers before being put up for auction. They were also sometimes given food to make them look healthier and more attractive to buyers. Additionally, slaves were sometimes trained to perform specific skills or tasks to increase their value at auction.
House slaves typically learned to perform a variety of domestic duties such as cooking, cleaning, childcare, and sometimes even reading and writing. They were often privy to the personal lives of their owners and were sometimes tasked with managing the household affairs.
Slaves sometimes engaged in successful strikes to demand better working conditions, wages, or to push for their freedom. These strikes could disrupt plantation operations, making it economically unsustainable for owners to ignore the demands of the slaves. Additionally, public attention and pressure from abolitionists could also influence the outcome of these strikes.
