Best Answer

Not all slaves were treated harshly. There were different degrees of slavery. The Gullah of the South East Coastal Areas were left on their own except at harvest time. Many of the slaves of Mississippi received extremely harsh treatment.

The harsh treatment meant their work suffered, they worked at a much slower rate than the slaves along the east coast. They were much sicker. When freedom came, the slaves went due north. Those from the east coast were smarter than those from areas where slaves had been abused.
