The Univeristy of North Carolina HAS a great online program for documenting the American South...paying special attention to documenting slavery in the South.

The "North American Slave Narratives" section of the site is what you should look at most:

Online slavery is a big problem. More and more people are being captured by online slave hunters and kept in online captivity, and then sold to online slave traders who sell them online in places like ebay. You can read about this in the Online Slave Trading News, a publication dedicated to the promotion of online slavery.
