Brazil officially ended slavery in 1888 with the signing of the Lei Áurea (Golden Law), making it the final country in the Americas to do so.

No, the Virginia House of Burgesses did not end slavery in 1620. In fact, slavery was already established in Virginia by that time, having begun in the early 17th century. The House of Burgesses, which was the first legislative assembly in America, was created in 1619 and continued to support the institution of slavery in subsequent years. It wasn't until much later that movements to end slavery began to gain traction.
Contrary to popular belief, race was NOT the dermining factor of slavery. Slavery begun more as a means of economic benefit, than a system in which whites could feel superior over blacks. The economy of America was deeply dependent on this source of forced, extremely inexpensive labor. Property holders needed someone to work their lands, but they also needed to maximize their production and profit. It was ideal for them to have slaves who required so little to live, yet did so much work. It was not until the South needed a justification for this forced labor that they begun the discussion of race as a factor and reason for slavery.
