When people escape from the plantations, they are chased and searched by others. There is a scene where someone spots a group of escapees and follows them, and even monitors them from a tree.

The "spitting" the other person mentioned at minute 26 is actually coughing up water. Regular spitting happens later, the slave owner spits on the ground a couple of times in an insulting way, but you don't actually see the spit.

The main character got forcefully separated from her sister's at a young age. Sudden flashbacks to this appear at multiple times during the movie to haunt the main character, so some level of trauma can definitely be inferred.

The film takes place in America during a time when slavery was practised, and the main theme of the film is escaping slavery. The word is used casually.

While people are escaping from slavery they of course have no permanent home. That being said no one is shown homeless for a prolonged amount of time.
