What does “Race-Based” Slavery mean?
mario62 [17]

Explanation:  The Birth of Race-Based Slavery

By the 17th century, America’s slave economy had eliminated the obstacle of morality.

In the decades before 1700, therefore, the number of African arrivals began to increase, and the situation of African Americans became increasingly precarious and bleak. Sarah Driggus, an African American woman who had been born free during the middle of the 17th century, protested to a Maryland court in 1688 that she was now being regarded as a slave. Many others of her generation were feeling similar pressures and filing similar protests. But fewer and fewer of them were being heard. The long winter of racial enslavement was closing in over the English colonies of North America.
