This was part of the Triangle Trade Route used by slavers. They picked up their slaves in West Africa using iron and trade goods to barter with the slave catchers and slave traders. They delivered the slaves across the Middle Passage where they bartered their cargo to Plantation owners and slave traders for a fresh cargo of sugar, molasses and rum. They then turned their ship toward Europe where they again bartered this commodity for trade goods destined for West Africa. At each point in the Triangle Trade Route they turned an immense profit since they arrived with a product that each destination had a high demand for. A ship captain could easily retire after two circuits of the Route and a crewman could buy a pub or a small farm with his share of the profits. Those that completed three or more successful circuits became the owners of large European Estates and the founders of some of the great European Family Dynasties.

"Ooh, someone else can do the work for me!" was the basic idea. And so whites owned slaves.
