Chapter 21 – Africa and the Africans in the Age of the Atlantic Slave Trade Forced removal of Africans African culture became one of the important strands in the development of American civilizations. Islam consolidated its position in sub-Saharan and east Africa Most of Africa remain independent states

Factories – Trading stations with resident merchants established by the Portuguese and other Europeans Luanda – Portuguese settlement founded in 1520’s; became the core for the colony of Angola

African Captives The Portuguese and Spanish inaugurated the pattern for contacts along the African coast Most forts were established with the approval of African authorities desiring trade benefits

Slave Trade in the Congo Missionary efforts followed, particularly to the powerful states of Benin and the Kongo (Congo) Other Europeans followed Portuguese patterns by creating trading stations through trade agreement with Africans

Slavery eventually became the principal focus of relationships between Europeans & Africans The development of sugar plantations on the Portuguese and Spanish Atlantic islands (Madeira, Canary, & Azores) and their subsequent extension to the Americas was a main reason for slavery The campaign against slavery that grew from Enlightenment ideas was an important turning point in world history

African slavery was important in shaping the modern world It was one of the early international trades and it assisted the development of capitalism In 1660’s the English worked to supply their plantation colonies The French became the major carriers in the 18th century (Haiti)

Tropical diseases caused both resident Europeans and the crews of slave-carrying ships high mortality rates Slaves arrived at the coast as a result of warfare and of purchase El Mina – Important Portuguese factory on the coast of modern Ghana

Luanda – Portuguese settlement founded in the 1520s became the core for the colony of Angola Royal African Company – Chartered in Britain in the 1660s to establish a monopoly over the African trade; supplied slaves to British “New World” colonies

Triangular trade – Complex commercial pattern linking Africa, the Americas, and Europe; slaves from Africa went to the New World; American agricultural products went to Europe; European goods went to Africa

The "Middle" Passage Between 1450-1850 about 12 million Africans were shipped across the Atlantic; between 10-11 million arrived alive Middle Passage – slave voyage from Africa to the Americas

The Middle Passage Brazil received more than 40% of all slaves reaching the Americas The continued high volume was necessary because of high slave mortality and low fertility rates Only in the Southern U.S. did slaves have a positive growth rate

Slave Ship Plan Other slave trades: trans-Saharan, Red Sea, & east African – all under Muslim control; added another 3 million to the total # of slaves traded

Notice of a Slave Auction Diaspora – The dispersing of a group of people after the conquest of their homeland Saltwater slaves – Slaves transported from Africa; almost invariably black Creole slaves – American-born descendants of saltwater slaves; result of sexual exploitation of slave women or process of miscegenation (marriage of two races)

On Africa’s east coast, the Swahili trading towns continued a commerce of ivory, gold, and slaves for Middle Eastern trade Few slaves went to European plantation colonies from east Africa

Boers – Dutch farmers who immigrated to South Africa Afrikaners – later term used for the Boers The Great Trek – Movement inland during the 1830s of Dutch-ancestry settlers in South Africa seeking to escape their British colonial government

Shaka – Ruler among the Nhuni peoples of southeast Africa during the early 19th c. developed military tactics that created the Zulu state Zulu wars – War fought in 1879 between the British and the African Zulu tribes Shaka

William Wilberforce – British reformer who led the abolitionist movement that ended the British slave trade in 1807

The influences causing the end of the slave trade & slavery were external to Africa Enlightenment thinkers during the 18th c. condemned slavery & the slave trade as immoral & cruel

The End!
