What is an indentured slave?
Correct Answer
B. A person who has to pay off a debt.
Explanation
An indentured slave is a person who has to pay off a debt. This means that they have entered into a contract, known as an indenture, in which they agree to work for a specific period of time in order to repay a debt they owe. This practice was common in colonial America, where individuals would agree to work for a certain number of years in exchange for passage to the New World or other necessities. Unlike regular African slaves who were forcibly captured and enslaved, indentured slaves had a chance to eventually gain their freedom once their debt was repaid.
