they picked cotton in cotton fields usually. the children served as feet warmers in the masters house hold on a cold winter night. the were also forced to learn English or they were beaten. if you were a woman in slavery your child would be in danger. they would suck all of the milk from the mothers braest and the child would go hungry and die. this didnt happen all the time,thoigh. some masters were more tender hearted than other masters. and some were not.
