Answer 1

Answer: Slave driver

Explanation:

The Slave Driver was the person responsible for ensuring that slaves did as they were told and worked very hard. They used cruel punishments such as whippings, slapping, punching and other forms of physical abuse.

They were known to be particularly cruel in order to instil fear in the enslaved people such that they would not even think of disobeying the slave driver.

Slave drivers were usually white but sometimes there would be a black slave driver with a white overseer.
