"Running head: SLAVE TRADE BUSINESSSlaveryNameInstitutionDate 2SLAVERY TRADE BUSINESSSlavery IntroductionWhile researching books published about slavery, I discovered a large number of authorswho have published books about slavery.Regarding that the books are many I decided to choosean artist by the name Carol Perkin who printed a book of quality literature about slavery. CarolPerkin, the stunning author, had positioned the Slavery in America literature into a historicalcontext by deeply elaborating what is the slavery, the beginning of slavery, the facts aboutslavery, slavery timeline, how long slavery lasted and when slavery ended. Carol Perkin has alsodiscussed a bit of historical context as to why the South still want to keep slavery.I construct agoal in this slavery literature paper by using Carol Perkin’s source from the Beginning of Slaveryresearch by connecting three other handbooks of different authors.In the accomplishment of my particular goal, my paper gets planned into two sections ofdiscussion.In the first section, I have discussed Slavery in America. My first section gets furthersubdivided into subsection containing the slavery definition, slavery facts about America, slaverytimeline, when slavery started, how long slavery lasted and slavery in the modern world today. Inthe second part of my slavery literature paper, I have discussed why the South f America peoplestill keep slavery.I finalize my paper by stating the disadvantages of slavery and conclude anillustration that slavery should end. 3SLAVERY TRADE BUSINESSBeginning Of Slavery in AmericaSlavery DefinitionSlavery means carrying and selling of slaves inform of business.The merciless businessof transporting slaves began in the early decades 15th century, a period when West African gotexplored by the people carrying out slavery including the Portuguese. First, the business ofslavery trade created in small numbers whereby little black people were taken by Portugueseabout 1650 approximately. For example when slave trade began the black people weretransported to the European countries to serve the white people (Carol, 2011).Start of SlaveryCarol Perkin, 2011 states that slavery in America began in the early 18 to 19 decades.Slavery in America referred to the official establishment of human beings mistreatment in the 18decades after America gained independence although this slavery in America also began beforethe America war that was civil ended. Slavery from early periods of colonial gets practiced inBritish North America thus was lawful in all colonies that existed in America at that time.America gained independently in 1776, and by that time there were thirteen colonies which wereallowed lawfully to carry out the slavery business of moving and selling human beings.The reason as to why slave trade began was as a result of plantation or agriculturalpractices that took place on the colonized Caribbean island and American land the business grewslow by slow as some black people increased the time to time. Africans have carried away due tothe high level of poverty they had nothing to sustain their daily need especially the food was theprimary underlying need (Carol, 2011). 4SLAVERY TRADE BUSINESSSlave trade impacted most of the European countries since they were able to find cheaplabor in their plantations. This farm included sugar cane plantations where slaves were demandedor were forced to cultivate. Business took place from the emerging countries where black peoplewere many in Africa. Atlantic slave trade transportation of slaves business was economical in thelives of individuals because it involved traveling long distances since people were to cover longdistances before they reach the destination (Carol, 2011). However, the journey was tiresome,and some slaves even died on their way due to hunger. Slaves were forced to cultivate crops, clearing of forest and were then compelled to mineprecious metals. Slaves were expected to work hard in the European countries this continued asthe number continually increased, most West African countries were affected by this trade(Gregory, 2011). For example, the Dutch people got affected because they were forced to moveout of their homeland.The number of slaves who got carried from their homes to the slavery lands was high.From the seven continents, these people were forced to work in big plantation farms, cultivationis the work that the slaves conducted in the farms, and most the slaves were the black people(Carol, 2011). Slave trade made their journey to be in centuries and quarterly after 1700 decades.The majority of slaves got brought to Northern parts of America in 1720 and 1780.After that in1821 to 1830 about 80,000 black people leaving in Africa engaged in slave ship According to the constitutional law that existed at that time slavery business occurredmany times because it was the only economic value to the emerging countries. During this timeof transporting slaves, black people suffered many things, men and women were separated andremained naked and also got chained for long in the voyage. Slavery contributed negatively to 5SLAVERY TRADE BUSINESSblack people since many of them died along the way, black people suffered mercilessly while inthe journey due to harsh weather and hunger many of them died on their way (Gregory, 2009).Slavery End in AmericaAccording to the research conducted by Deny Focally, it indicates that slavery ended oneighteenth December eighteen sixty-five. Slavery ended because the law got changed and a newconstitution was amended.A statement got issued by the Secretary of the State Government bythe name William. This secretary verified that according to the thirteenth amendment that wasimplemented the constitution of America ends the slavery because the civil war was over.Several arguments on the end of slavery got brought up because individuals who carriedout this business were not happy about this. The argument got based on the fact that theplantations they owned had no one to work on them. But the president of that era Lincolnreleased an inspiration message stating that the end of slavery has to be pushed forward becauseslavery has no benefit instead many people are losing lives from the sad state of treatment (Deny,2006).Moreover, from the debates that got held, a big number of people were not happy withthe end of slavery. Slavery lasted for many decades, and when a new constitution of Americawas released, the law allowed the end of slavery because many people got treated wrongly andothers died due to hunger. At the end of the civil war, a large number of citizens in Africa hadhopes that slavery could end because it lasted for so long. When the war was over a newconstitution was released, and this was the end of slavery. The slavery People were happybecause a big number of the slavery people returned to their homelands (Carol, 2011).Slavery Facts 6SLAVERY TRADE BUSINESSGregory states that there are many slavery facts that people do not know since they aresecretive. Some of the facts are that most slaves that got taken to America from Africa gotpurchased from the same black people. It is funny because how your person from the samecountry sells you to another country to do forced labor. It is a fact that in the early decade’speople had no mercy to each other all they wanted was money and to be known rich.Another fact is that slavery was ordinary for many decades and it still exists in somecontinents. The American Indians owed many black slaves because African people in the earlydecades preferred being rich through illegal ways.Another fact shows that it is the white peoplewho discovered that slavery is wrong thus they began to stop it because slavery led to manydeaths. For instance, slavery was a legal act according to the early century’s law (Gregory,2009).Slavery TodayIn the modern world today, slavery still exists but the today slavery is not seen by manybecause it is done differently from the past slavery.Examples of the today slavery include Childlabor, domestic violence on children, international trafficking of women to different continentsand forced labor to innocent human beings. Today child labor is almost everywhere becausemost of the street children have lost their parents and therefore these children lack a parentalguidance and care. The child runs to the streets to seek for something better that they can do toget food. Most of these kids have turned to beggars in the streets (Holmes, 2012).Child labor and forced labor arises due to lack of parental guidance care, loss of parentswhile young and lack of somebody caring for the street children. Forced labor is a process ofpushing a human being to do something related to work, but at the end,no payment that gets 7SLAVERY TRADE BUSINESSmade to them. Most children in the perfect world today are forced to perform duties that evenbeyond their age because they have lived. These children are taken to bid plantations to performheavy tasks, but they are not paid instead they are harassed and chased away without any money(Holmes, 2012). For instance, this leads to children moving to the streets to act as beggars in thetowns or they turn out to be thugs.Research conducted by Kelly Holmes indicates that slavery will never have and endbecause people will never see what is wrong and what is right. Kelly Holmes states that women’strafficking is evolving today.Holmes says many people disappear and no individual knowswhere this particular person went. The research shows that many people who just go anyhow gettaken to slavery or most women are taken and forced to act as workers in the fields ofpornographic films because no payment is given to them because they are slaves.Slavery in the SouthThe defense of slavery in the South of America got defended highly. Arguments arose inthe Southern because they did not want to end the slavery in their country.Those who supportedslavery in America saw that many impacts in their continent were to be affected. The defendersconsidered effects of economics decrease, history reinforcement, religion discrimination, thelegality of the constitution, and the social goods of the people in the Southern and politicalconsequences (Deny, 2006).The major point of avoiding an end of slavery in the Southern was that the people reliedtoo much on the slavery than any other thing. On the fact of the economy, the defenders knewthat the economy could run down because the slaves worked for free and not paid, so theeconomy was high. Most of the economy in the Southern came from the tobacco and rice 8SLAVERY TRADE BUSINESSplantations. The defender believed that end of slavery was too intense and kill the great economyof the country because their growth of the economy was due to the slaves who worked for freeon the plantations of the Southern part.Defending of slavery in the Southern was difficult because the defenders were evil andargued that all slaves cannot get fled because if the government chooses people to work in theplantations, the possibility of unemployment to many people gets considered because there couldbe chaos in the choice of the workers. Because the individuals in the Southern were not used tosuch plantation works.So the probability of the decrease in the economy value was highbecause the produce of products could get low (Deny, 2006).Deny says that the defenders of slavery in the Southern argued that slavery existed allthrough their History, so they did not any need of ending slavery. The defenders of slaverybelieved so because slavery was deliberately the National symbolic state of the present humanity.However, they based their historical context on an argument that the Greeks, Romans, and theWhite people had slavery business from the past and even up to this present era.Another reason as to why slavery still exists in the Southern is because the defenders ofslavery act view a biblical concept that even in the bible Abraham had slaves.So they have abelief that even it’s a past generation and slavery should continue but they have a poor view ofimagination. The defenders of slavery in the Southern did not listen to the court orders as the lawstates, so they turned to the rulers and said that the blacks had no right to stand in court becausethey owed them as their property of economic values. The defenders also stated that the Southerninstitution was divine hence the contrast of the poor people in Europe and slave workers in theNorthern states were cared for better (Deny, 2006). "
