True or False. Most slaves were concentrated on the plantations, but there were many slaves living in urban areas or working in the rural industries because their owners hired them out for daily or yearly work?

This sharpened class divisions, as a small number of people owned larger and larger plantations.

Answer 2

It’s a true statement
