In Roman times most slaves were white and came from Europe.The particular slave trading that took black people to America was one of convenience and need. There was a triangle of ship travel from Europe laden with manufactured goods to exchange for slaves in Africa (slaves sold into slavery by black people). Across to America where the slaves were sold to work in sugar or cotton plantations (because there were not enough people there to do the work). Then back to Europe laden with Sugar and Cotton, to sell for money.
