Before 1670, the largest class of laborers in British North America were indentured servants. These were typically poor Europeans who exchanged several years of labor in exchange for passage to America. They were not considered slaves and had the potential to earn their freedom after their term was up. The use of black slaves became more widespread after 1670.
