Slave Trade
The African Slave Trade has affected a very large part of the world. This phenomenon has been described in many different ways, such as slave trade, forced migration and genocide. The problem with these descriptions is that none of them accurately describe the African Slave Trade or its consequences because they are all biased points of views. Although none of the descriptions alone form a decent view on the subject, all three appellations seem to provide a more concise understanding of why the slave trade started and how it has affected so many people, societies and countries.
Slave Trade is the most general term used for representing this historical account. The point of view expressed here is that of the western European and European American settlers which enslaved Africans. Slave trade dehumanizes Africans because it focuses on the legal institution created by law in America, which allowed white American settlers to actually own Africans. This type of chattel slavery was severe and brutal, and also degenerated Africans. The rise of industrialization in America brought the demand for large amounts labor and Americans only cared about money. They saw slavery as the easiest way to become profitable.

The mercantilist system will eventually be cited as a reason for the American Revolution. However, this was not always the case. Define the mercantilist system and its effects on the colonies prior to 1760. Also, explain the initial colonial reaction to this
