What work did the slaves do in America?
Slaves in America were used for a variety of purposes. In the north, more affluent families kept slaves as domestic servants to cook and clean. Slaves could also be used for tasks in production, and some were taught to be skilled craftsmen or ironworkers. However, the vast majority of slaves were used on the vast plantations of the south. There, they planted, tended, and picked the crops (the most common of which was cotton, but also included tobacco, rice, and indigo) for extended hours essentially every day of their lives.
