An Overview of Colonial Society
An Overview of Colonial Society is a skill on Pengi from Lesson 4: Life in the Colonies in History Alive! - The United States Through Industrialism.
Key Concepts
Life in the American colonies created a new kind of society. For some European settlers, it offered a chance to climb the social ladder in a way that was nearly impossible in Europe. This new social structure was more open for some, but it was built on deep inequalities.
While some people arrived as indentured servants, working for a set number of years to earn their freedom, millions of Africans were enslaved . They were considered property and forced into a brutal system of labor with no hope of freedom. This contrast between opportunity and oppression defined colonial life.
