Slaves were being shipped from the west coast of Africa, to the west Indies, and South America. The slaves were given a very small space in the ships, and they weren't given very good food either. Conditions were disgusting and overcrowded. The journey lasted about 100 days, and not many slaves got to South America alive. A lot of them died from diseases, and some of them even got thrown overboard. The slaves were kept in dark rooms, and there was a lot of vomit and faeces lying around. Rats were a common sight, nibbling away at food, or other scraps.
On the way over from Africa, living conditions in the ship were poor. this included cramped spaces which helped spread disease among the slaves in the ship. When they got to America, living conditions were still very poor. That's probably why they were called slaves, right?
