The Movement of People (The Slave Trade)
Slavery was an integral aspect to the growing territorial holdings of European countries in the western hemisphere. The initial intention to use indigenous slaves quickly gave way to the Atlantic Slave Trade. During nearly 400 years of Atlantic-centered trade, between 11 and 15 million Africans arrived in the Americas as slaves. (NA, Caribbean, SA) Approximately 1 in 20 was brought to North America
10
The Movement of People (The Slave Trade)
The Middle Passage became an incredibly dangerous portion of the process. Conditions were cramped, disease was rampant… One in six slaves died during this voyage.
11
The Movement of Goods (Mercantilism)
Economic philosophy or practice in which European powers established colonies to provide raw materials to the Mother Country; the colonies received manufactured goods in return. Between 1651 and 1673, the English Parliament passed four Navigation Acts meant to ensure the proper mercantilist trade balance. These DYNAMICALLY restricted colonial trade. With the prospect of war against the French looming, the British employed salutary neglect to maintain the colonists’ loyalty. Read Dr. Carole Shammas’ article “America, the Atlantic, and Global Consumer Demand, ”
