Slavery not only existed in America but in many places in the world. In many places it serfdom had replaced it. Still it was accepted. It existed almost worldwide. It existed in Europe, Africa, The Arab World, and The Americas. The Spanish enslaved Indians and killed many of them and then replaced them with black people. Slave ships then started going up the coast of America continuing selling slaves after they had sold slaves to the Spanish Colonies. So America simply joined a movement with wide support throughout the world.
Black slavery in America started in 1807. No, it was prior to 1776. There was discussion about including the elimination of slavery in the declaration of Independence.
There were black groups that formed in America before slavery began. In fact, Anthony Johnson, a black man himself, was one of the first American slave owners.
Slavery had a huge impact on American society, and it still has. Especially in the South of America was a lot of slavery. Black people were seen as inferior and white people really thought they were not capable of thinking. During the Civil War, the North was against slavery and the South wasn't. Many people died to fight for the abolishment of slavery. Finally slavery was abolished and black people were free. However, blacks were still seen as an inferior race. Also, the difference in the North and South can still be seen in America. As a black person you can often be called the N-word in Southern America.
Of course it did! People were still pregidous against black people.
