Slaves generally receive enough basic necessities to live and work: corn meal and salt pork to eat, cheap clothing and shoes to wear, and crude cabins in which to live. Life for women in the slave community may take on many different roles, from the physical labor they do and the children they care for to the "doctoring" skills they practice and the sexual demands of "masters." The conditions of slavery in the country differ sharply from slavery in the city. By 1820, most of the Northern states had outlawed slavery, creating competition between free blacks and poor white workers. The fact that Northern states did not have slavery became a powerful point of difference between North and South.
