1. Slave labor was needed for the colonies because there wasn't enough people living inside the south too help farm. Also it was cheaper to get slaves from africa (which is forced to work for their owner for life most of the time) instead of hiring a bunch of Southern farm hands to help them.
2. Cash crops were grown to make BIG money, however, you can't really eat it ( i mean you can try eating tobacco (idk if it can be eaten) or cotton (definetely not). Substinence crop is for eating. Even though you don't make much money selling them, you are able too feed your family (and sell the extras for profits)
3. An artisan slave gets a lot more freedom and are usually treated better than a normal slave because they are skillful in needed stuff. An example of an artisan slave can be found in the book "Stealing South" in which Mr. Ezekiel, the artisan slave 'knows a lot of things' and that there isn't a lot of things that he doesn't know about that goes around that area. He also states that because of his knowledge, he was given greater freedom than most slaves.
hope this helps :D

As the nation prepared for war, better paying factory and manufacturing jobs became available in the North and on the coasts. Those opportunities encouraged many African-American men and women to relocate. Black Americans also moved to southern cities, such as Birmingham and Mobile, which grew into important military manufacturing centers. Those shifts from one part of the country to other parts led to other changes. People from different backgrounds came in contact with and worked with one another. Those experiences made black Americans determined to resist racial discrimination.
Although the U.S. government denounced Nazi racism overseas, white Americans maintained their own racist system of inequality and violence against black citizens. In many parts of the country, African-Americans were denied the right to vote. They attended segregated and inferior

schools. They faced discrimination or exclusion from branches of the military and certain jobs. And for some black workers, high unemployment and low wages remained.
The contradiction angered African-Americans. They demanded that the nation live up to its highest ideals. The Pittsburgh Courier, a black weekly newspaper, launched a "Double V" campaign in 1942. It called for "victory over our enemies from without" — the Germans and the Japanese — and "victory over our enemies from within" — American racism. Black Americans took those words seriously. They strongly supported the war effort and they also engaged in protests against racial injustice at home.

In September 1940, Randolph was part of a delegation that met with President Franklin D. Roosevelt and demanded that the president end segregation in the armed forces. Roosevelt did not act.
