TRANSATLANTIC SLAVE ROAD

By: Julio Chong, Mark Chen, Christopher Breebart and Carlos Montenegro

The End?

Over time, abolitionist movements gained momentum, advocating for the end of the slave trade and the emancipation of enslaved people. This led to the eventual legal abolition of slavery in many parts of the Americas. These events collectively highlight the profound and devastating impact of the Transatlantic Slave Trade on:

  • Individuals
  • Communities
  • Countries
  • Ethnicities

Circulaction and Starting point

The slave trade in which slaves were transported across the Sahara. Most were moved from sub-Saharan Africa to North Africa to be sold to Mediterranean and Middle Eastern civilizations; a small percentage went the other direction.

The Harsh Voyage

First, Africans were captured from their homes, often through raids, wars, or trade networks. Many were held in "slave factories" along the coast until they were shipped. Enslaved Africans were transported across the Atlantic Ocean in extremely harsh conditions aboard overcrowded slave ships. Upon reaching the Americas, enslaved Africans were sold for grueling labor on plantations, in mines, and in various industries.
