Slaves going from Africa to the US were under very harsh conditions. Sleeping conditions were basically side by side with absolutely no room to even roll over. Moldy bread and stagnant water was the food rations given. Even at that, many went without food, thus leading to death from starvation. Really only approximately 2/3 of the Africans made it to America alive.
the people were shipped on boats to Africa to take the Africans and turn them into slaves
The slaves usually came from parts of Africa.Usually they were put on boats and followed the triangle trade route.Which was from Africa to Europe to Americ(the U.S.)
on boats
im pretty sure as slaves. i know blacks were brought to America cramped on the bottom of boats but im not exactly sure if they were from Africa or not..
The slaves were purchased at auctions, from another slave owner, or in some cases, they were inherited. The buyers checked to make sure the slave was healthy and without any defects physical. Slave traders brought the slaves over in large boats from Africa.
On boats.
Because they were being taken to America as slaves in boats crammed tight with people
Slavers
They were kidnapped and taken on boats to America.
no because slaves masters would not give them time to build one.
europeans would sail to Africa with their boats loaded with guns, alcohol etc (traditional british items). When they got to Africa they would exchange the guns, alcohol etc for human slaves. (at least at the start, as the slave trade progressed the sailors started to capture their victims) Then with their boats full of slaves they would sail to west indies/ south America and sell the slaves in exchange for coffee, gold, sugar. Then they would sail home and sell the coffee, gold, sugar for huge profit. This was known as the slave triangle.
they had hand cuff things and they were forced onto the boats by the white men. the slaves were sold by there own people because they didn't want them anymore. they had hand cuff things and they were forced onto the boats by the white men. the slaves were sold by there own people because they didn't want them anymore
