The US Slave Trade took place in the 1700's. It involved 3 major stops to get various items from each continent. It stopped in England to acquire guns and other weapons. It then went to West Africa and boarded the ships with many African American Slaves. They then shipped them across the Atlantic to the 13 Colonies where they would work the fields. The ships then took many crops back to England.
