Rationale
African slavery existed for centuries within West Africa before it became prominent in the European colonies. The treatment of African slaves in European colonies was inhumane as they bore hardship from capture to death. This was generally accepted in European societies as the slaves were chattel good labourers, and ensured that the Europeans would make a profit on the plantations. However, there were some persons and organizations that were willing to fight valiantly to end the slave trade but there were those who wanted it to continue. This caused a fight to determine if slavery would end or remain.
Objective
• To establish the possible motive for the slave trade and the enslavement of Africans. • To identify and interpret the views of Europeans at home and in their colonies in relation to the slave trade and African slavery. • To identify the role of abolitionists and how they helped to end the slave trade and slavery.
Methodology
