How did each of those work out for the slaves?

Well, for some of them, pretty darned well. A lot better than for their slaveowners, at least.

Anyway, I'm not sure what your point is. Mine was that a lot happened before the 1960s, and much of it wasn't pretty.

Actually my statement (first sentence) was about the century before the 1960s, i.e., after the US Civil War when the slaves were already 'free'.

The "Civil War" really should just be renamed the "Slavery War"
