If they didn’t do as they were told or the white person didn’t think they were doing it fast enough they would whip them. Even children would be slaves and work. If they were to weak to work they would still have to work until they died. Only black people were used for slaves. When they were being sold they were like objects being auctioned, but they were not objects, they were people.
