The overseer typically managed the plantation house and watched over the house slaves on a Southern plantation during the antebellum period in the United States. This overseer was responsible for supervising the day-to-day operations, ensuring the house slaves performed their duties, and reporting to the plantation owner.
During a day of slavery, slaves typically endured long hours of hard labor in harsh working conditions, often with inadequate food and rest. They also faced physical abuse, humiliation, and dehumanization at the hands of their owners. Additionally, slaves were denied basic rights, family ties were frequently broken, and education was forbidden, perpetuating their subjugation and suffering.
Slaves typically started work at dawn and continued throughout the day until sunset. They had long work hours and very few rest days, often laboring from sunrise to sunset, sometimes even longer during peak seasons like harvest.
