Slaveholders often beat enslaved individuals as a means of exerting control, instilling fear, and maintaining power over them. Physical punishment was a common tactic used to enforce obedience and discourage resistance or disobedience. It was rooted in the dehumanization of enslaved people, where brutal treatment was seen as a way to reinforce the social and economic hierarchy of slavery.
The slaveholder owns the plantation and the slaves. The overseer is hired by the slaveholder to manage the day-to-day operations of the plantation and supervise the slaves. The slaves work under the oversight of the overseer and are considered property of the slaveholder, subject to their control and exploitation.
