The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Based on the development of colonial slave codes from the early seventeenth century to the early eighteenth century, to what degree were slavery and race connected in the early colonial period?

They were very connected. AS soon as more blacks for the Caribbean Islands and Africa arrived in the North American territory to work in the English colonies, wealthy white landlords feared that the blacks could harm them, their families, and their property. That is why they developed the slave codes.

Was slavery premised on racism or did slavery create racism?

I think they are intertwined. Since the very beginning, one came with the other.

Powerful landlords feared black rebellions and forced black's descendants to be slaves too. Whites prohibited blacks to express their opinions, gathering in large numbers. to testify against whites in courts, marry white people, and slaves could not own property. As curel as it sounds.
