How did technological innovations in textile mills affect the practice of slavery?
a-faster and cheaper production of cloth raised the demand for cotton plants, which increased the need for enslaved workers on southern plantations.
b-the increase of machinery in textile mills meant that large numbers of enslaved workers were needed to run the machines.
c-as the number of machines in textile mills increased, fewer laborers were needed and the number of enslaved workers declined.
d-new technologies in textile mills enabled more cloth to be made from less cotton, and the number of enslaved workers on cotton plantations decreased.

A. Faster and cheaper production of cloth raised the demand for cotton plants, which increased the need for enslaved workers on Southern plantations.

Textile factories began using mechanized looms and weavers which created cloth more quickly. Being able to create cloth more quickly meant a higher demand for cotton which was achieved with the invention of the cotton gin.

The cotton gin separated the cotton fiber from the seeds increasing the speed which cotton fiber could be produced which demanded more cotton production. Being cotton was labor intensive this increased the demand for slaves which caused more blacks to be enslaved on Southern plantations.
