How did the cotton gin lead to the growth of the institution of slavery?

What grade are you in? (lol)

I studied this... I'm glad to help you!

- The cotton gin affected slavery because after the cotton gin was invented more slave owners wanted slaves in order to be able to organize the cotton. Since this machine worked really fast in the process of taking the seeds off the cotton, the slaves would have to also work faster to get the cotton & organize it without stopping (even if the machine was to fast).
