Interesting question!
It is a huge misconception that there were no slaves in the north. Slavery was not as common due to the fact that the Northern economy was not as heavily agricultural as in the South. New York and Connecticut had large slave populations. <span> In the North they have cold winters and the South had mild winters. Meaning you would have to provide warmer cloths, food and warmer shelter which would cost slave owners in the North more money</span>
Answer:
During the Mexico-Texas conflict, President Houston sent out troops to make certain that all Mexican forces were out of San Antonio. A Texan army led by Colonel William S. Fisher ignored orders to return to Gonzales and attacked the Mexican town of Mier. Although they put up a good fight, the Texan army was outnumbered and captured as prisoners. The prisoners were taken back to Mexico City. They escaped, but many were recaptured only a week later. Santa Anna ordered the execution of every 10th prisoner whose fate was to be chosen by lottery. Every prisoner had to take a bean out of a jar; if he chose a black bean, he would be executed. Santa Anna executed 17 men who drew black beans. The remaining prisoners were taken to Perote prison and later released.

Hey there!
The term "slave" refers to a sense of possession and dehumanization.
A slave is different than a servant; the term slave implies that they are owned. It is also accepted that the word slave (at the time) justified the harsh treatment they were given. In the eyes of their owners, they were animals. That was the message spread during the time of slaves. Books like "The Heart of Darkness" exhibit this limited and negative view of Africans in general, not just slaves. This view was reflected in culture, in economics, and in religion. Slaves are not entitled to the same humane rights and have no more standing than a horse, oxen, or any other animal that was used to profit and make a living. It also sadly exemplifies how close-minded the world can be, it happens in all cultures all around the world. It reflects human nature.
I hope this helps!
