Question

Which of the following is true regarding slavery in the mid-Atlantic colonies (New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania)?

All these colonies banned slavery from the start; slavery had never been allowed

These colonies only enslaved Native American war captives

By the mid-eighteenth century, slavery was a significant part of the economy and social structure in all these colonies

Except for New York City, all mid-Atlantic colonies banned slavery

Answer 1

I believe the answer is C. All of these states, NJ, NY and PA had slavery for a very long while. It is until the late 18th century, after the Great Awakening, Pennsylvania began to use free labor or indentured servants to replace the enslaved people.
