How is slavery different from modern times to 19th century slavery?
I'm confused as to how slavery is different in modern times from old slavery in the 19th century. At this time I'm interested on information in the United States.
Well, unfortunately, in modern times if you try to enslave someone (no matter how black he or she may be) you can be imprisoned. They were much more lenient during the 19th century. Other than the risk of imprisonment and the technological advances made to the cotton gin; however, not much has changed, as long as you don't get caught with slaves. I hear that now it is actually more acceptable to enslave Mexicans because they are better cooks.
