Slave trade
As long as I could remember I always heard people mostly African Americans say how slaves worked hard for over 300 years. I always used to agree but never really knew anything about it. In my world history class we had to choose three topics that we wanted to do and the first tpoic that came to mind was slaves. Not being able to find the word slave alone I found slave trade so that is the one that I chose. Even though slave trade is a little different from slaves I still chose to do it because I feel that it was the same thing. Now in order to learn more about slave trade I had to choose it which I did and that is how I The things that I know about slave trade mostly come from autobiographies such as Fredrick Douglass's, movies such as Roots and books from school. I can't say that the things coming from school books are true or not but I do believe that they are because If they weren't they wouldn't be teaching it to us. In school I learned how the slaves were treated in the Roman times. They were treated as if they weren't even human and as if
The slavery of ancient times reached its peak in Greece and the Roman Empire. Slaves did most of the work in these societies. Some insist that the rise of Europe was predictated on the trade in African slaves (Gomez 862). Using the information that I had from my searches I was able to get started on my I-search paper. Reading about most of the things in those stories you would not believe that it was possible for people to treat other people that way. I was also able to get the right ideas on pre-generated ones. The whole basis of my research was to find out how slave trade came about and why. There, captives were exchanged for textiles, metalwork, rum, tobacco, weapons, and gunpowder then packed below the decks of slave ships. In the next 300 years, it grew into a huge and profitable business. Commercial exchanges through which African captives were brought across the atlantic ocean to provide slave labor in the New World. Most of my research time was spent at Sunrise Library and at a site called www. There is also the question of the trade's impact on Europe.
