The first recorded use of Africans as slaves in the American colony was in 1619. 20 of them were transported to the Virginian colony. Although, before and after that, whites tried to use American Indians as slaves. They proved to be useless due to their "wild instincts". They had no clue how to work on a plantation. Even after that, some poor whites were taken from England and Ireland to be used as slaves. Both of those ideas vanished quickly due to sudden and fatal problems.

There was little use of indentured servants or slaves in New England because?

New England had a more diversified economy compared to the Southern colonies, with a greater emphasis on small family farms, trade, and manufacturing. This reduced the demand for large numbers of indentured servants or slaves to work on plantations. Additionally, New England's harsh climate and rocky soil made large-scale agriculture less profitable, further diminishing the need for coerced labor.
