    Life on southern plantations was difficult for slaves. Slaves were treated like property and sold at markets. They were forced to work long days in fields planting and harvesting crops like tobacco, sugar, rice and cotton. Slaves lived with the risk of physical punishment or sexual abuse, and families were sometimes separated by sales. Escape attempts were dangerous, with brutal punishments for those who were recaptured.
