Slavery in the Caribbean
The contrast between the slave death rate and birth rate was so drastic that they could not sustain their population without bringing in more slaves from Africa.
If a slave was not following orders , and went against their master too many times, their master had the right to harm the slaves to any degree, even death, and have no fine charged onto them.
The slaves were branded, beaten, burned, whipped with chains, and, due to many of these things, died from their masters.

Many of the slaves would resist against their owners by attempting to run away, burn the plantations, have acts of sabotage, and even be violent against the people or property they were on.
-
The female slaves were exploited more than the male slaves and were seen as sexual objects instead of people. The also had to provide sexual services.

The slaves would get weekly with small amounts of food, and many would die from hunger because of it. The slaves would also get little clothing nor shoes to protect their feet.

In the Caribbean, many of the plantations would hold 150 slaves, and sometimes more.
