African slaves formed the core of the colonial labor system in the American South. They were forcibly brought to the New World and sold into slavery, and were used to cultivate crops such as tobacco, rice, and cotton. Indentured servants and contract workers were also used, but they were a smaller portion of the labor force compared to African slaves. There were also some Indian slaves, but they were not as numerous as African slaves.
