African slaves were forcibly taken from their homes in Africa and transported to the Americas to work on plantations. They were treated as property and subjected to harsh living and working conditions, including physical abuse and exploitation. Slavery was a system built on racism and dehumanization, denying slaves their basic human rights and freedom.

This shift fundamentally altered the demographic and cultural landscape of the region.
