The Plight of Enslaved Women during the Domestic Slave Trade
When Congress outlawed the transatlantic slave trade beginning in 1808, new demand for enslaved people had to be met by natural reproduction in the local slave population or by domestic trade. As a result of the increased demand for slave labor due to the booming cotton industry, an estimated one million enslaved people were forcibly transferred from the upper South to the lower South between 1810 and 1860. Enslaved women were the property of their enslavers, who were free to do with them - and their bodies - as they wished.
