Enslaved African Americans were often bought by slave traders and plantation owners in the United States, who then sold them to various buyers, including overseas plantations in the Caribbean and South America. Some abolitionists and philanthropic organizations, like the American Colonization Society, purchased enslaved individuals with the intent of resettling them in Africa, particularly in Liberia, to start new lives. However, these efforts were often fraught with complexities and did not provide a true escape from the legacy of slavery.

It is believed to be here for everyone to take care of and for it to take care of us. It being the planet, native country, natural resources etc. They both were plagued by diseases that European or Caucasians brought with them when they came in contact with the two groups. The two groups also both first welcomed Europeans until the Europeans either killed them off or enslaved them. The two groups are different because the Africans were kidnapped and brought here to the USA where as Native Americans were just that...Native to this land we now call the USA. They were kidnapped alsoand the Europeans tried to enslave them, but that did not work because they were too weak from the diseases. They were then, simply run off theior land.

Why were enslaved Africans brought to the new world?

The reason African Americans were initially captured and bought to labour in America was the Americans had seen many other colonisers partake in the activity and subsequently saw a chance to increase their wealth. The Americans had previously attempted to enslave Native America but this ended because the Native Americans died in great numbers from the diseases bought over by coloniser's.
