Two reasons for slave trade

Answer 1

The white man thought that he was the superior human being and felt that he was above working in a field. Africans were better at working in the heat because of where they lived and their skin color.

ANS2:Slave trade results from a disenfranchised population that is used as a work force for people who have money and the need for cheap labor. African slaves were often delivered to the European slavers by other Africans who had defeated them in battle.

Answer 2

1. The local population of Central and South America proved unfit for forced labor. The Death Rate simply was too high, also because many preferred suicide over virtual slavery.

2. Experiments where European contract workers were brought in failed: most white workers (and their overseers) succumbed to tropical diseases within weeks or months after arrival. Africans were much more resistant to these diseases, especially to Yellow Fever.

3. Slavery was everywhere in Africa, from long before the arrival of the first Europeans to long after the Europeans had already abolished it. Raiding neighboring tribes for the acquisition of slaves was a regular occurrence in tribal life and part of its economic framework. In many parts of Africa, one third of its inhabitants were slaves, held by fellow Africans.

So when Europeans set up coastal trade posts and showed an interest in acquiring slaves (and a willingness to pay good money for them) local tribal chiefs quickly created an almost inexhaustible supply of them, making "easy and huge availability" the third reason.

Answer 3

Two reasons Africans were brought to America as slaves is because they were seen as uncivilized in Africa and it was a form of labor that was beneficial to many business people.
