Passive voice is sentence construction because the subject is placed to the end of the sentence and thus acted on rather than acting. For example, the dog bit the boy in passive should be, the boy was bitten by the dog.
Passive voice is a useful tool in writing when the writer wants to emphasize that someone is receiving an action and not doing it. For example, Cyrus repaired the bus here bus is the object. In passive voice it should be the bus was repaired.

According to the text, what are the differences between the traditional form of slavery practiced in Africa and plantation slave
aleksley [76]

Answer:

The distinction between the traditional form of slavery practiced in Africa and plantation slavery practiced in the Americas was the way slaves were treated in these two dimensions.

Explanation:

"West African Society at the Point of European Contact" is an article from the collection of the US history website. In the article, the writer shares about the West African lifestyle and the prosperity enjoyed by people before the arrival of the Europeans.

The writer shares differences between the traditional form of slavery practiced in West Africa and the plantation slavery practiced in America. He states that the slavery practice in Africa had a long history. People who were captured after the end of the war were taken as slaves but they were treated as humans, eventually becoming a part of the family. <u><em>The children of slaves were not considered property to be sold or bought. Many times some slaves gained high honors in the communities</em></u><em>. </em>

Conversely, <u><em>plantation slavery was based on race</em></u>. Slaves in the plantation slavery were treated inhumanly, inferior, and considered property rather than humans.
