Two conditions that an indentured servant has to face include:
severe punishment for disobedience
restrictions on personal activities
Indentured servants were people who signed a labor contract with a master.
This master would pay for them to come the American colonies and would then take care of them for the duration of their contract as they worked to pay off the debt of bringing them to the Americas.
Although there were laws protecting these servants, they had restrictions placed on them such as:
punishments for disobeying their master could include whipping
there were things they were not allowed to do such as hold money or leave the plantation without permission.
We can conclude that while indentured servants were not enslaved people, they were sometimes treated as if they were.
The triangle trade involved the captivity and shipment of slaves, and it may have benefits great Britain but it was far more harmful to the world and it's ethics.
