Slaves in the Sugar Colonies were treated more freely than North American colonies.
There were more economic opportunities for mulattoes like them being able to become political leaders, scholars, musicians, writers, and also slave catchers.

We got something the other colonies don't have and that's . . . sugar.
Sugar is used as medicine, spices, sweetener, sculptures, and it gives as a high status.
We traded with the Southern colonies of British, North America. We traded tobacco, cotton, rice and indigo.
