Slaves in the Caribbean were primarily involved in agricultural work, cultivating crops such as sugar, tobacco, coffee, and cotton on plantations. They were forced to perform grueling labor under harsh conditions, often subjected to physical and emotional abuse by their owners. Many slaves also worked in industries like mining, construction, and domestic service.
Europeans brought African slaves to Caribbean
they need slaves cuz the plantation owners which were the whites did not want to work.
The Europeans got other Europeans at first to work on plantaions however they could not manage working in the hot sun and eventually got sick or died.So they need other people who are more accustomed to the climate. Africa being close or even hotter in climate the Africans were the logical choice. Thus they went to Africa and traded weapons, ammo and other things that were mass made in their country for war captives, who were in turn taken to the Caribbean and sold as slaves. Hope this helps.
