1 Jan 1525 Jahr - Beginning Transatlantic Slave Trade

Beschreibung:

The slave trade refers primarily to the transatlantic slave trade, in which millions of Africans were forcibly transported to the Americas from the 15th to the 19th centuries to work as enslaved laborers. This trade, driven by European and later American demand for labor, especially in plantation agriculture, had devastating effects on African societies, led to the establishment of racial chattel slavery in the Americas, and has had lasting social, economic, and racial impacts in the United States.
