What will be an ideal response?
Ans: By 1700, one out of eight people in the region was an African American. The slave labor system polarized Chesapeake society along the lines of race and status: all slaves were black, and nearly all blacks were slaves; almost all free people were white, and whites were free. Slavery created new political problems. By the 1700s, the most important political issue in the southern colonies was keeping slaves "in their place".
