Also correct, most plantation owners treated their servants with respect, teaching them english, how to read & write, providing medical assistance etc.

But of course these people were slaves, so they couldn't just take a month off & go into town for hookers & 40's. But overall they were treated very humanely, about as humane as you can get having slaves.
