How would you describe Thomas Jefferson view about slavery?

In his Notes on the State of Virginia, published in 1785, Jefferson expressed the beliefs that slavery corrupted both masters and slaves alike, supported colonization of freed slaves, promoted the idea that African-Americans were inferior in intelligence, and that emancipating large numbers of slaves made slave.Jefferson’s belief in the necessity of ending slavery never changed.  From the mid-1770s until his death, he advocated the same plan of gradual emancipation. First, the transatlantic slave trade would be abolished.10  Second, slave owners would “improve” slavery’s most violent features, by bettering (Jefferson used the term “ameliorating”) living conditions and moderating physical punishment.11  Third, all born into slavery after a certain date would be declared free, followed by total abolition.12  Like others of his day, he supported the removal of newly freed slaves from the United States.13 The unintended effect of Jefferson’s plan was that his goal of “improving” slavery as a step towards ending it was used as an argument for its perpetuation.  Pro-slavery advocates after Jefferson’s death argued that if slavery could be “improved,” abolition was unnecessary.

Explanation:

Thomas Jefferson viewed slavery with evil and controversy, despite the fact that he owned hundreds of slaves himself. He wanted to abolish slavery in the Declaration of Independence, but feared that the South would turn away from the newly formed United States due to this. The statement that "all Men are created equal" and that all have a wide degree of individual freedom to the rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, would still go into question for almost a century.
