Slavery for Africans, particularly in the context of the transatlantic slave trade, lasted for several centuries, beginning in the late 15th century and continuing until the 19th century. The trade involved the forced transportation of millions of Africans to the Americas, where they were subjected to brutal conditions and labor. While the transatlantic slave trade officially ended in the 19th century, slavery in various forms persisted in some regions long after abolition. Overall, the impact of slavery has had lasting effects on African societies and the diaspora.

No, Europeans were not the first to trade Africans as slaves. The practice of slavery existed in various forms within African societies long before European involvement, with some African states engaging in the capture and trade of slaves among themselves. However, the transatlantic slave trade initiated by Europeans in the 15th century significantly expanded the scale and brutality of slavery, as millions of Africans were forcibly taken to the Americas for labor. This trade would have lasting impacts on African societies and the world.
Slavery first reached the New World in 1619 when a Dutch slave trader sold Native Africans to English settlers at the Jamestown settlement in Virginia. This marked the beginning of a system of chattel slavery that would expand throughout the American colonies. The introduction of enslaved Africans significantly impacted the economy and social structure of the region.
