Africans developed a society and culture of their own. They had elaborate family structures, which was now possible due to the increasing life expectancy of slaves. They tried to develop nuclear families, but this was always in jeopardy because a family member could be sold at anytime. They developed language and religion of their own. Slaves society was invaded by whites. African house servants were subjected to unwanted sexual advances and bore mulattos (mixed kids) that white fathers ignored, but were accepted into the slave community. There were occasional acts of resistance and at least twice in the colonial period there were actual slave rebellions, such as the Stono Rebellion. On some large plantations, slaves were craftsmen, and set up their own establishments to help buy their freedom.

How did war affect families
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

War, like any other crisis, has its obvious, although more superficial, and its subtler, but more profund, effects upon the family. Among the more observable effects of war on the family are the withdrawal of Young men from civilian, and their entrance into military, life, with a consequent increase in socially disapproved forms of behavior; the entrance of women into industry to replace the men drawn into the armed forces, with an accompanying neglect of small children and an increase in juvenile delinquency; and changes in marriage, divorce, and birth rates. The more profound effects of the war upon the family include intensification of the trend roward the companionship type of family; a further rise in the status of women; further losses of family function, with the increasing use of nursery schools for the rearing of preschool-age children and the extension of governmental provision for family security; further liberalization of the code of sexual morality; and an increase in family instability as an accompaniment of the transition from the institutional to the companionship type of family.
