What did the spanish begin the Atlantic slave trade?

No. Slave trade has been going on for thousands of years. The Greeks and Romans bought and sold slaves and for every war they took slaves. The Spanish in the Southwest used Native Americans as slaves. Columbus on his 2 nd voyage took 1200 Native Americans as slaves, but at one point in the American colonies slaves could escape to Florida and the Spanish to find freedom. They could own businesses, go to school, buy property.
