Africans were captured for enslavement through various means including raids, warfare, kidnapping, and trade with European slave traders. They were often sold by fellow Africans or European slave traders to work on plantations in the Americas. The transatlantic slave trade was brutal and dehumanizing, resulting in the forced migration of millions of Africans.
The transatlantic slave trade resulted in the forced enslavement of approximately 12-12.8 million Africans.
