Indentured relates to the manufacture of artificial teeth. The slave trade was a ready source of teeth, as required by this business and so developed a dependency between the two.
Segregation meant that the black people were not allowed to eat at the same resturant as white people etc...
In the mid-17th century, becoming an indentured servant could be a double-edged sword. On one hand, it provided a pathway to America and the opportunity for land ownership and a fresh start after a period of servitude. On the other hand, it meant giving up several years of freedom and facing harsh working conditions, which might not guarantee a better life afterward. Ultimately, the decision would depend on individual circumstances and aspirations for the future.
??? I'm not too sure what you meant to ask here.... if you were asking: where did you, as a native American, live? my answer would be.... I am native American and I was born and raised in northern California on the same land my ancestors lived on. BUT if you meant: where in America did native Americans live? then my answer would be....... native Americans were EVERYWHERE... depends on which (specific) tribe you meant. we're over 500 nations/tribes strong, so you kind of need to be more specific if that's what you meant.
Morality aside, indentured servants made more sense economically than a slave.You could easily buy a fully trained slave, but the slave was usually quite expensive. If you bought an untrained slave or one was born to your existing slave you had put the slave through a training period. During that time you got no work, and possibly some damages made by an inexperienced worker.There were laws regulating the treatment of the slave, and once the slave was too old to work, or too feeble the owner had to feed and clothe that slave for life. By the same token, if you had dangerous work required, and the slave was hurt you had to care for him or her.Slaves were forbidden by law and custom to be taught to read and write therefore they couldn't work as clerks or assist with any business transactions.An indentured servant typically brought existing skills needed by the "employer." Although the servant may have had meals and clothing provided, it wasn't necessarily required. It all depended on the contract. The person taking the indentured servant could specify what he was looking for, and get it on his terms. Once the indenture was over, obligation was over.Lastly, the middle colonies socially were more "do it yourselfers," religious and cultural norms meant that they typically wanted to work and do for themselves. If you were starting a farm or business you may need some help to start but once the operation was going, they wanted to do it themselves.
Fewer Europeans became indentured servants :) apex

I'm not so positive that I'm right, but this is what i have Because they had indentured servants which meant that they volunteered to work without pay in exchange for transportation to America. Well, once their indentured servants left they needed help so they enslaved Africans to their job for them. Hope this helps

Being a slave meant being owned as property for life, with no personal rights or freedoms. Indentured servants were under contract for a specific period of time, usually seven years, in exchange for passage to the New World and eventual freedom. Slaves had no legal protections or recourse, while indentured servants had some rights under their contracts.
Being an indentured servant meant that a person agreed to work for a specified period of time (typically 4-7 years) in exchange for passage to a new country and the promise of eventual freedom. These servants were not considered slaves, but their labor was bound to a contract, and they had limited rights until their term of service was completed.
There were two reasons why they turned to slavery. The first one is indentured servitude was a contract for 7 years and often people didn't finish out their contract once they arrived. This meant that they could fade into the population of colonists and no one would know they were indentured servants. While slaves were African American and anyone who was black was a slave no matter where they were. This is the second reason why slaves became popular because no matter where they were they could be picked out as a slave. To leave a plantation they had to have a pass, and slaves were property while indentured servants were workers.
a good climate and fertile land meant the colonists could grow a large quantity of staple crops unlike colonists in New England, some slaves worked in the the middle colonies but not as many as in the south indentured servants did more of the labor
An indentured servant is a person, usually poor, who sells himself to person, or simply works someone else's land, in order to make little money and become independent. However, this does not always work, as indentured servants were most commonly paid with a portion of the food they harvested. Many British men indentured themselves with rich men who would pay for their passage to the New World in order to start a new life and gain economic opportunity.
