African American Historical Perspective
(5 pp) Although, the number of African American
slaves grew slowly at first, by the 1680s they
were essential to the economy of Virginia. During the 17th and 18th
centuries, African American slaves lived in all
of England's North American colonies. Before Great
Britain prohibited its subjects from participating
in the slave trade, between 600,000 and 650,000
Africans had been forcibly transported to North
America. And that was the unfortunate beginning
for African Americans in this country, and
although there are indeed African Americans who
have prospered with education and other
professional skills, but many have not.
