This video is about the negatives of the trade and what happened. It tells about how slaves would kill themselves because of the harships and suffering. This has a big affect on the present day because it kinda helped racism. Also, it made Africa suffer and the men and women who lived there.

Gillian Lamas-Murphy: Atlantic Slave Trade

# data[].attributes.body
The Main point of this video is to show how the slave trade has affected the world since the late 1400's. The Europeans traveled to Africa to find cheap labor and they did! They enslaved hundreds of Africans to bring back to Europe to work. When the slaves were being shipped to Europe they had to endure horrible conditions in the lowest levels of the ships. Tight packers crammed as many men as possible into the lower levels of the ships.Many slaves died due to lack of sanitation in their cramped space. Disease was as thick as mud down in those lower levels. The women and children were kept above deck and abused. The men had to perform dances to keep themselves fit and also make sure no one rebelled. The slaves were treated like criminals. I find that this event is awful and unjust. This event caused many problems that are still alive today one of them being the disruption of cultures and economies.

This video main purpose is to to teach about how slaves lived and how they were treated. They were forced to live in cruel and absolutely disgusting conditions. They were crammed into tight spaces were diseases ran rampant and were led on to believe that whites were cannibals and that”s why they took people who came back but the whites always came back for more. For the fear of being eaten, and to escape from the suffering, slaves committed suicide. Those of the slaves that survived were put through many years of pain, suffering and hardship.

The main point of this video is to educate on how slaves were treated and what they were put through during the time of the Atlantic Slave Trade. They were forced to live in disgusting conditions by the Europeans while they forced them into the Americas by ship from Africa. Over the span of 400 years, from the 1400's to the 1800's, 10 million Africans were victims during this time period. The Atlantic Slave trade has had a huge negative impact on Africa today. It has increased the amount of war and disrupted cultures and economies.

The main point of this video is to show the significance of the Atlantic Slave Trade. The Atlantic Slave Trade began in the late 1400's when Europeans in the New World needed people to work growing sugar cane, cotton, and tobacco. The Europeans turned to Africans when they were running out of indentured servants to work for them. African kings sold people in their countries that they thought of as criminals and prisoners of war. The slaves faced unimaginably horrible treatment as they were shaved, branded, and crammed onto ships where about twenty percent would soon die. The Atlantic Slave Trade developed racist ideology in America.

The main point of the video was to show the effect on the slaves and the effect that the Atlantic Slave Trade still has on the world. The Europeans forcibly brought millions of people from Africa to the Americas, jam packed into the cargo hold of ships where many died of starvation or disease. Several economies of the tribes in Africa colapsed when slavery was outlawed in the Americas and Europe, causing problems that still exist in Africa today.

The main point of this video was to show the long term affects of the slave trade and how it still hurts us today. This video gave us examples of the living conditions that the Africans were forced under as they made their way to different countries to serve as slaves. The slave trade hurt modern day because it made many kings sold their slaves and made money to buy weapons and goods to protect them from other enemies. This made those enemies want more weapons and thus created conflict and war that our modern day countries still stand by.

The point of this video is to explain the negative affects of the Atlantic Slave Trade between the 1400s and the 1800s. It showed the horrific conditions African slaves and indentured servants were forced to live in. Diseases were spread due to these filthy conditions. These diseases led to many deaths of men in the cargo area of the ships. Once the slaves reached the New World, they were forced to work many hours each day doing labor intensive chores such as caring for crops. The Atlantic Slave Trade had a very negative and unfortunate affect on the world which has caused many problems we still deal with today.

The main point of this video was to show the affect on indentured servants and slaves. The Africans were forced to live under bad conditions. The Europeans packed as many slaves as possible into the cargo area of the ship. With the small space they had diseases were spread among them, this caused many of them to die. Some of the Africans tried to take there own life by jumping off the side of the ship. Others got punished then thrown off the ship. When they reached the new world they labored for hours a day. This was a inhuman event. It started racism that is still a problem to this day.

The point of the video in my opinion is to get the message out about slavery or to understand why we actually thought it was okay. Not just that though it is also used to show how badly we treated the slaves.

# data[].attributes.body
The main idea of the video was to show how bad The Atlantic Slave Trade was. Slaves were taken from their homes and branded then thrown onto ships. The slaves were crammed below the deck making there nearly no room. They were also thrown overboard if they were sick or just for discipline. Women and children were kept above deck while being harassed by the sailors.

The main point of this video was to explain how the Atlantic Slave Trade worked, and the affects it had on those indentured servants and slaves. The video showed some of the conditions these Africans were forced to live under. The Europeans shipping the slaves packed as many men as they could into the cargo area of these ships, leaving hardly enough room to move. This led to diseases that spread among them, killing many of the captives. Some of the people aboard these ships even tried to take their own lives, starving themselves or jumping overboard. The men were brought above deck to dance,  which was to 'keep them in good physical condition'. The lives of the survivors didn't get much better once they reached the new world. They labored for hours on end each day, with some of the most work intensive crops, such as tobacco, sugarcane, and cotton. The Atlantic Slave Trade was an inhuman event in my opinion, and it led to injustices against Africans, like racism, which are still problems today.

Sam Lukehart                                                                     The main idea the video is covering is the negative affects the Atlantic Slave Trade had on the world. The Atlantic slave trade was from about the 1400s to the 1800s. But it has affected the world greatly. It spanned from North America, South America, and Africa. It forcibly brought over 10 million Africans to the Americas to work as slaves. The Africans were then used for labor intensive work. Most of the Africans coming to the Americas either died of disease, starved themselves to death, or jumped overboard. Those who survived were put to work in the Americas. Racism was a huge part of the Atlantic Slave Trade because most of the Europeans and Americans believed they were less important and were made to serve them. The Atlantic Slave Trade had a very negative affect on the world and even today we have problems with racism, unfair treatment of people, and slavery even though it's illegal.

The main point of the video was to expose the injustices of The Atlantic Slave Trade as well as connect it to the modern world through its impact and consequences that affect today. This is clearly shown in the conclusion which says “In all of these ways, The Atlantic Slave Trade was an injustice on a massive scale whose impact has continued long after its abolition”. The bias is also shown at 2:34, where it says “As for the slaves themselves, they faced unimaginable brutality”. Some of the facts to back up this statement were that ⅕ of the slaves never saw land again. It also states that many died of disease, were abused, or committed suicide by starving themselves or jumping overboard. As for the facts to back up the impact it had on Africans, he says that tens of millions of able bodied citizens were imported. It also says that it led to the formation of racism towards the slaves, which still affects us today.
