Which of the following best describes a difference between enslaved people in cities and those on plantations in the
hoa [83]

Answer:

Enslaved people in cities often kept some of their wages, while enslaved people on plantations never saw any of the money they made for their owners.

Explanation:

In America, the settlement of the Europeans brought slavery and "bound laborers." These laborers were owned by the masters who indulged them in domestic, farming, and commercial laboring. They were not paid and were neither given any equal rights. Plantation laborers were indulged in plantation fields. They were not treated with any human dignity. They were beaten, punished, and even sold without their consent. In the urban areas, the definition of slavery was different from that of the plantation fields. The laborers were employed in the shops and they had some freedom as compared to the farm slaves. They enjoyed some escape in the urban areas from the harshness of the masters.
