Slavery is a system under which people are treated as property to be bought and sold, and are forced to work.[1] Slaves can be held against their will from the time of their capture, purchase or birth, and deprived of the right to leave, to refuse to work, or to demand compensation. Historically, slavery was institutionally recognized by many societies; in more recent times slavery has been outlawed in most societies but continues through the practices of debt bondage, indentured servitude, serfdom, domestic servants kept in captivity, certain adoptions in which children are forced to work as slaves, child soldiers, and forced marriage.
Slaves were very valuable and cost a lot of money. They were called property, not citizens, so they were sold in an auction house. A lot of slave owners felt free to punish their slaves whenever they did the littlest things, such as sweeping the floor wrong. Punishments were whipping (often 50 to 100 lashes), branding, ducking under water, getting put in stocks, slapping, kicking, tarring and feathering, and tying up. Run away slaves were chased by dogs, and when caught, were hit with paddles or whips or got a body part such as an ear cut off. Some slaves even died from these punishments. These punishments originated in England. No punishment was too harsh or too mean. These punishments were done even after it was against the law in the United States. However, the worst punishment for many slaves were to be sold away from their family. They were sent far away and to new places where they were uncomfortable. There were nice slave owners who did not hurt their slaves,so many slaves did not run away. The nice slave owners knew that if they were mean, the slaves would run away and the work would not be done on the plantation. If the work was not done, the plantation did not make money, and the owner could not buy new slaves. Then, finally,the plantation would fall a-part. This is why slaves were so valuable and important before the law was made.so slaves were hurt because they were beaten to death wiped to death unitled they died this had happened because us blacks were beaten and the whits didnt care but harriet tubman had led us to be free. she had led us to the underground railroad.

Slaves in the 1800's had no protection from being hurt; their owners were free to hurt them for any reason, and with any severity that they wanted to. I could say that slaves were protected by the kindness of their owners, and in fact some slave owners were relatively kind, but most were not.
Because they have to worked hard so the slaves don't have to be whipped and hurt to death.
Levi Coffin helped the slaves by sheltering them, caring for them if they were hurt, and also gave them food and clothes.
Slaves often resisted having work forced on them so the masters would get violent as a punishment.

Slave owners would often hit slaves with whips, sticks, or other objects to inflict punishment or enforce control. The severity of the beating could vary depending on the offense committed by the slave and the temperament of the owner.
