I see a lot of black people on the streets and thought to my self goodness gracious we must have had a lot of slaves. I wonder how many boatloads it took to bring all those africans to America in the old days.
Also did the boats take multiple trips to bring more Africans?
Thanks

- The African slave trade has been going on for thousands of years, and still is within Africa
However as to the American based, as i assume that is what you mean it was not originally in the US but in the islands, the first being brought to Hispaniola in 1501
It was outlawed in 1807 in the US (slavery continued but buying them and transporting them from Africa was forbidden)
so you have several centuries of trade going on0% 0 Votes - >Also did the boats take multiple trips to bring more Africans?
Yes it was a profitable business, the more you could pack on (and still have them alive at the other end) the more profit you would make.
While you are asking yourself this question, ask yourself another, how many ships did it take to get the other races to the continent? Apart from a dwindling population of Native Americans all of them (or their ancestors) were transported somehow.11% 1 Vote

I don't think there is an exact number. There must have been at least 15 boat loads. They packed the slaves in there really tight..0% 0 Votes -

Just one, I think it was called the Titanic and the captain was Kunte Kinte and he had one leg and they ran into a great white shark. When the ship went down, they were rescued (most everyone) by another ship, the good ship Lollipop. Then everyone landed in New York City, traded land for beads and doodads....Fast forward 900 years and here we are!0% 0 Votes
