chosen.content: No, slavery was not a choice. Slavery is defined as the compulsory labour of a person to another in exchange for payment or in return for something of value such as favours, goods or services, and is usually without the consent of the person performing the labour. As such, slavery is something that is done against the will of the person being asked to perform labour. Therefore, it is not a choice but rather an imposition or coercion.

rejected.content: No, slavery was not a choice. Slavery is a system in which people are forced to work against their will. People were usually bought and sold as slaves, and had no say in the matter. In some cases, slaveholders may have allowed or forced their slaves to marry, although this choice was also rarely voluntary. Slaves also often had no control over where they worked and how they were treated.
