4) The treatment of and attitudes toward women, slaves and religious minorities.
-Southern colonies
The southern colonies have a reputation for its very strong views of white Supremes. But every
colony in the Americas had the exact same views as they had except for one aspect. The slavery
in the south was a generational slave contract where the slave will be a slave until he or she
dies, and their children would also be slaves. This was mainly due to the racism that was present
in the south. Women where treated the same as anywhere in the world as second-class citizens.
And the in the south there was not a huge religious discrimination.
-Northern colonies
The northern colonies had the same view on the women as being second class people as the
rest of the world had. They did not have religious minorities for they believed in freedom of
religion. And they had slaves but did not treat them as badly as the south did and they had some
rights unlike the south.
-Middle colonies
The middle colonies also saw women as second call but as the north was had advanced views on
slavery by giving them some rights and did not have many religious minorities because they
believed in religious tolerance. But later on they would have many problems with religious
minorities especially Muslims and Jews.
