What happened to slaves if they weren't sold?
Sooner or later, all slaves offered for sale in the major new world slave markets during the 16th, 17th, 18th and 19th Centuries were sold. Unsaleable slaves, like those too old, sick, or in some way useless to a slave owner, were not offered for sale. They remained the responsibility of the current owner. None were killed because they were unsuitable for sale. This is a misapprehension. It should be noted that the great majority of African slaves during this four century period were imported into Brazil and the Caribbean. Very few were imported to North America. It should also be noted that many slave owners were people of color, especially in the Caribbean. People of partly African ancestry were the largest group of slave owners in Jamaica just prior to emancipation in 1832. Significant numbers of slave owners in Virginia were of at least partly African ancestry. And, of course, virtually all suppliers of slaves in Africa were African people from dominant tribes.

Africans were enslaved due to economic exploitation by European colonizers, racial beliefs of African inferiority, the need for cheap labor in the Americas, and the transatlantic slave trade.

1. The colonies in the Americas depended on slave labor to work on their plantations. The owners tried to make as much money as possible, so they wanted cheap labor.2. People who enslaved Africans and then sold them made a great deal of money.3. Some African tribes actually helped the slave traders and allowed their people to be captured. Also, many African nations could not defeat the slave traders.4. Many European nations who participated in the slave trade had more and better weapons to capture slaves, and the Africans were helpless to defend themselves.

Africans were kidnapped by European slave traders through various means such as raids on villages, deception, or being captured by rival African groups.

This brutal process was known as the transatlantic slave trade, which lasted for over four centuries.
