Yes Latin America was the first stop for slaves during the 1500s...the Spanish and The Portuguese had huge slave empires. About 60% of slaves brought to the new world were mostly sent to Brazil in South America, the Caribbean (haiti, cuba,Puerto Rico,Jamaica,Dominican Republic...etc) received the 2nd largest quantity of slaves and the 3rd would be North America. Brazil has the 2nd largest African descent poplation in the world, coming in Second to Nigeria in Africa (statistics state that atleast 40-50% of Brazils population is of African descent, part of that culture is still seen in the traditional African religion of Candomble). There are also African descent populations in the northern section of South America-as well-specifically Colombia and Guyana.
