For this question,refer to the following excerpt. "At last to my new master's house I came,
At the town of Wicocc[o]moco call'd by name,
Where my Europian clothes were took from me,
Which never after I again could see.
A canvas shirt and trowsers then they gave,
With a hop-sack frock in which I was to slave:
No shoes nor stockings had I for to wear,
Nor hat,nor cap,both head and feet were bare.
Thus dress'd into the Field I nex[t] must go,
Amongst tobacco plants all day to hoe,
At day break in the morn our work began,
And so held to the setting of the Sun.
My fellow slaves were just five Transports more,
With eighteen Negroes,which is twenty four ...
We and the Negroes both alike did fare,
Of work and food we had an equal share...."

The excerpt describes the author's experience as an indentured servant working in the tobacco fields alongside African slaves. The fact that both indentured servants and African slaves were working together in these fields is a direct result of the demand for labor to cultivate tobacco, which led to the emergence of the Atlantic slave trade. The passage does not mention the development of more effective means of enslaving Native peoples, a decline in the belief in European racial and cultural superiority, or the development of a close-knit, homogeneous society.
