Settlement colonies are large groups of people from one country living together in a new country.
Black Africans were taken to America to be slaves primarily due to the demand for labor in the European colonies. Europeans sought to exploit the abundant natural resources in the Americas, such as sugar, tobacco, and cotton, and needed a large and cheap workforce. Slavery was seen as a profitable and efficient means of fulfilling this labor demand. Additionally, the transatlantic slave trade was fueled by racist ideologies that dehumanized Africans and justified their enslavement.

It is estimated that around 4 to 4.8 million enslaved Africans were sent to Brazil during the transatlantic slave trade. Brazil received the largest number of enslaved Africans of any country in the Americas.
In cities, enslaved Africans had greater access to communication networks, like churches and markets, which facilitated coordination for rebellion. Additionally, urban centers provided more anonymity, making it easier for enslaved individuals to organize without being detected by their owners. The diverse population in cities also allowed for alliances with free Black individuals, Native Americans, and others who supported the abolition of slavery.

Because Africans were strangers to the Americans, so they wouldn't have allies or places to hide. Additionally, the Native Americans had much weaker immune systems than Africans because Africans had developed around the same livestock that Europeans had. This made the Africans more disease resistant. Africans were also able to put up with muich more abuse, on average, than Native Americans without fainting or dying.
Once you are away from your country, taken or voluntarily, culture and relatives may be all you have left.
