Would a black soldier fight for the confederacy if they had a choose?

no, because there would be a 90% chance that a black man was a slave or was once one and why would he fight for the slave cause, so....logically no unless he was still a slave and was being threatened by his master


What would a slave call his or her owner?

what do you call a King or Queen master or a loyal name. Mostly to a slaves owner you call them Master.


Was black slave holders significant in the history of slavery?

Not to the same degree of historical significance as their Caucasian contemporaries, but from the view of slavery in general, slavery was widely frowned upon; thus anyone who was a slave owner would have had the same level of fame or notoriety, depending on where in the country this question would be asked (particularly, in the 'North' or the 'South' within the United States during that time). However, in general, African Americans were, regardless of stature (i.e. slave owner, free, indentured servant, slave, etc.) viewed as inferior to their Caucasian counterparts.


What would happen if a slave ran away?

The owner would put signs up and anyone who found the slave/slaves were expected to bring them back to the South or to their owner. If they got back to their owner, they were beaten,or whiped in front of the other slaves. Fact: A runaway slave is called a fugitive. Hope this helps ya!
