    Similarities Between Indentured Servitude

    In his speech to the Senate in 1837, Calhoun declared that slavery was “instead of an evil, a good-a positive good.” He also said “Never before has the black race of Central Africa, from the dawn of history to the present day, attained a condition so civilized and so improved, not only physically, but morally and intellectually.” 12 Supporting his view with the following reasoning: in every civilized society one portion of the community must live on the labor of another. 13 American slaves were treated better than slave elsewhere in the New World.
