How did the domestic slave trade come about, and do you believe it was mostly different from, or similar to, the Atlantic Slave Trade?

Respuesta :

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

The domestic slave trade came about when wealthy people realized that they could have servants in their homes and properties to make them do the errands and daily house chores. For these wealthy families, it was also a symbol of power and status in society. The more slaves or servants you had, the more powerful your family was. Sad but true.

I think it was r similar to the Atlantic Slave Trade. at least, it was a similar principle. During the horrible slave trade, African slaves were captured from the African continent and were taken to the Americas to be sold to work in the large plantation fields, producing crops that were traded and exported. The trip to the Americas was unhuman and many slaves died during the trip in those overcrowded spaces in the ship, where diseases and infections spread quickly.

Answer:

The Domestic slave trade occurred when Africans would capture prisoners of war or criminals and integrate them back into society. The slave would work and do chores for a family, and be given a room in the house, food, etc. Over time the slave would be freed after serving their sentence. The Atlantic slave trade was the heavily brutalized version of that. Slaves would be treated as low-class animals, beaten, bonded, raped, etc. Unspeakable things would happen to them, and they were forced to leave their homes, without any actual rooms, they would sleep in barns and eat the same food as cattle.
