Many African immigrants came to the US in the 1600s and 1700s primarily due to the transatlantic slave trade, where millions were forcibly transported to work on plantations, particularly in the Southern colonies. They were sought after for their labor in cultivating cash crops like tobacco and cotton. Additionally, some Africans arrived as free individuals or through indentured servitude, seeking better opportunities and escaping difficult conditions in their homelands. Overall, the primary motivation for the majority was economic exploitation and forced labor.
