Best Answer

Slaves were treated very badly on their way to America. They were packed shoulder to shoulder and by the time they got to America almost half of them were dead. They were often sold off by other African tribes that had captured them in feuds and battles. They were poorly fed and stuck in dark parts of the boat where cargo was stored. There was no proper ventilation, they were forced to eliminate in public and were bound by chains. This is all lies!! :)

How long did the Bible say before the slaves will leave America?

A:The Bible never mentions America or American slaves. However, the Thirteenth Amendment was ratified in 1865, resulting in freedom for all slaves in the United States. From that date, slaves no longer existed in America (although it took over a century for their descendants to be treated equally).


How were slaves treated when they came to America?

The slaves were treated horribly by a lot of people but some people were not cruel to the slaves. On slave ships coming to America from Africa it was horrible. The slaves were all chained together chained together and were only fed potatoes. The slaves often died on ships. If a slave died on a ship, they would be dumped. The slaves were kept in the lower part of a ship. It lacked anything clean and was full of infection. Some of the slaves attempted to jump over bored to die.
