White Southerners defended the institution of slavery on a several fronts.  They stated that it was necessary especially for the economy, They argued that slaves were the only ones who could do the needed work to grow tobacco (and later cotton). The Southerners also argued that there was no reason to cinsider that slavery was immoral.  They appealed to three sources to support this claim.  First, they looked to Biblical times.  They pointed out that there was slavery in the Old Testament and the New Testament and that Jesus never spoke against the practice.  Second, they looked at classical antiquity.  They claimed that the Greeks and the Romans counted on slaves  Finally, they looked to the time of the Founding Fathers.  They stated that the people who wrote the Constitution also had slaves.

13. During the industrial revolution, where did people move to? How were conditions in the factories? How did industrialization
nalin [4]

During the Industrial Revolution (1760-1890), people began moving to more heavily indstrualized countries. Such as Britian, France and Germany.

The conditions in the factories were bad, workers often lived in cramped spaces. They were also exposed to dangerous chemicals by the machines due to poor ventilation.

It wasn't just the chemicals, the machinery were also dangerous to operate as well.

The Industrial Revolution changed the way people lived by offering more jobs to people. The upper-class and middle-class workers were paid better and as a result, were able to move away from all the poverty.

However, the poorer workers would not get the same work hours or payment as the upper and middle class. Their standard of living had decreased as they needed to work more hours and got paid less.
