Treatment of Black Children in Slavery and Free White Children   Whenever we think of slavery, our focus would be on the adults more, but less on the children. Children who were born into slavery had lived a hard life having to cope with being separated from their own families, along with being raised and working for someone else who would mistreat them most of the time. While this is happening, children who are white are being raised by their own families while receiving an education and preparing themselves for the future. This exhibit will be comparing the treatment that was received for both black children in slavery and white children during the Antebellum Period of the Southern United States and how they would be affected afterwards.
