It was okay some slaves did not like being a slave they got whipped, hung,beat. so it wasn't really that fun but they danced sang worshiped god and celebrated that was the only fun part about being a slave. and they weren't allowed to read because the slave owners thought that if they read they would get smart and come up with a smart plan to escape.

Being a slave was a harrowing experience characterized by oppression, brutality, and dehumanization. Slaves were forced to work long hours under harsh conditions, subjected to physical and emotional abuse, and denied basic human rights such as freedom and autonomy. It was a life filled with suffering and exploitation.

It was a cruel time where someone was a property of some one and was a item that could be sold and re sold over and over again. They where treated so unfairly
Not very nice, most of the time, being deprived from liberty and having to do work for a master... You may want to read Alex Haley's work Roots: The Saga of an American Family to get an idea.
