This is a tricky question because no one knows African-American's exact ancestry. African slavery was present in Europe before the discovery of America in 1492. Those same slaves could have been brought to America when the New World was discovered in 1492. Slavery for Africans in 1620 in Jamestown, although it resembled indentured servitude rather than chattel slavery. (Whites also were indentured servants.) Race-based slavery developed over the next decades. Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation in 1863 declared the end of slavery, although it didn't immediately free any slaves. The end of American slavery is often dated June 19, 1865, when slaves in Galveston, Texas, finally learned that they had been freed. This date is often called, and celebrated as, Juneteenth Day. So, in order to, technically answer this questions, African-Americans were enslaved for approximately 465 years.
