Who was impacted by slavery?








Slavery made a very big impact to the African American in the Unite States. Slavery changed their whole way of living. It changed their traditions, their language, their music, their food, their clothing, their values, their culture. Slavery impacted slaves the most out of every one else involved. slavery transformed those slaves completely.



Slavery impacted slave owner in a good way because they had the slaves to do the work for them and the saved a lot of money. For example if a farmer used to work at his farm but then he/she got a slave, he/she could lay back and relax while his/her slave is doing the work for them. It was better for them to have a slave than hiring a worker because they would need to pay the worker but they didn't need to pay the slave if they didn't want to.

Slavery touched Abolitionist's heart in a way that made them start a conflict in government in order to give the slaves their freedom. Slavery was a motivations to abolitionist to speak out and do what was right. Slavery gave abolitionist a chance to be brave and be remembered in history.
