African slaves took aspects of their cultures such as language, music, dance, religion, and food with them to the new world. These cultural elements played a key role in shaping the development of African diaspora cultures in the Americas.
African slaves were brought to America to work on plantations and in other industries, and their enslavement was a result of labor demands and economic interests, not a direct replacement of American Indian workers. The exploitation of both African slaves and American Indians contributed to the growth of the American economy and the development of the nation.
The arrival of the first African slaves to Hispaniola marked the beginning of the transatlantic slave trade in the Americas. This event had a profound impact on the region's demographics, economy, and culture, shaping the development of the New World. It also laid the foundation for centuries of exploitation and oppression of African peoples in the Americas.
The slave culture was a blending of African and Western practices. The blending of these two distinct cultures created an entirely new entity, which was eventually absorbed into part of the American culture as one of its subcultures. Many factors contributed to this culture; the music, for example, helped the slaves get into a steady rhythm as they picked crops and did field work, and helped them take the mind of their work. They related strongly with the Hebrew culture and stories of enslavement to Egypt, and strongly emphasised this in their religion.
The islands were producing far more agriculturally at this time then the mainland, so it make sense that the first African slaves went to Hispaniola. The crops that were being grown during the 16th and 17 century in this area were very labor intensive. Due to disease and all that, that native Taino population on the island was wiped out and it was therefore necessary for the Spanish plantation owners to look elsewhere for cheap labor. The beginning of the slave trade comes about after pretty much the same sequence of events everywhere in the Americas, just at different times. Need for increased labor --> loss of native population from disease --> slave trade

An accurate take on the creation of African American culture is both distinct and enormously influential to American culture as a whole. African American culture is rooted in Africa and has a blend of cultures.

West African coastal cities were used by the West African States to sell captured African slaves to the Ships calling to take them to America. They grew very rich and prosperous on this trade.

Many former slaves moved west in the 1800s. Northerner's feared freed slaves would take their jobs. They did not want to stay in the hostile South.
They were told that if they fought they would become free. This was enticing to many who were tired of being slaves.
