Life As A Slave… In North Carolina

Some slaves were bought around the young ages of 5 to 7 and usually didn’t survive past the age of 25 but house slaves could live until they were 50.

Usually it was plantation owners who owned slaves. Many white people were slave owners though.

Slaves were fed one meal a day with water. Slaves received, as their monthly allowance of food, eight pounds of pork, or its equivalent in fish, and one bushel of corn meal.

Baking, cooking, churning, brewing, cleaning everything, gardening, caring for any animals, and making things like baskets were just some of the many things slaves had to do.

Slaves got Sundays off and maybe parts of Saturday unless it was during harvest. On very hot days slaves might be given one to two hours off at midday. Slaves were finally freed by the Emancipation Proclamation
