Were did slavery of africans begin in America?

Depends what you mean by America. The Spanish introduced African slaves in the Caribbean within 20 years of Columbus' first landing and African slavery was widespread in the plantation colonies of all European powers that had them in the Caribbean and Central and South America by the end of the 1500s. Probably the first African slaves in what became the United States were in the Spanish settlement in St. Augustine, Florida. The first unfree Africans in the British colonies of North America that later formed the United States were off-loaded in Virginia in 1619. However, the legal status of slavery, to which only Africans and their descendants were subject, as distinct from unfree indentured labor, which encompassed both Europeans and Africans in the 1600s, was only clarified in Virginia in the 1660s. The British North American colony most intensively characterized by slavery in the 1600s was South Carolina, which had a majority African population and was closely linked economically to the British slave plantation colony of Barbados.
