Slavery is a great civic for cities with some food resources. It can halve the time to build most of the improvements in the early going. The best thing to whip is a granary, since it then doesn't take as long for the city to grow back up.
When I have a city that can support pop rushing, I tend to use it for buildings and then build units normally in order to move out of the unhappiness from it and then pop rush another building. With granaries and food resources for the extra bread, it doesn't take long to recover the population and the benefits outweigh the shield production lost to sacrificing the people.
