The transportation of african slaves to the americas is best described as an example of migration. a. industrial b. forced c. colonial d. voluntary

The correct answer is B. forced.

Explanation:

The transportation of African slaves to the Americas is best defined as an example of forced migration.

The fact that they were being brought to America in chains to be sold as slaves to work the land obviously excludes D. voluntary. Even if slave trade was a key element in the colonial era, when focused on the process of transportation, the correct answer is B. Forced. In human geography, forced migration is defined as the coerced movement of people away from their home or home region. This includes natural disasters, famine, conflicts, and obviously slavery.

answer:

it caused mass african migration, african populations to grow, african empires to topple, and racism against slaves to emerge.

background

early european explorers to the americas likely experienced emotions including awe at the vast "new" environment, amazement at meeting "others," the thrill of the unknown, concern for personal safety, desire for personal reward, and longing for their homeland and those left behind. written and pictorial records attributed to europeans provide the bulk of the records of these early travels. impressions of natives as well as native impressions of europeans are frequently framed in the narratives of the explorers. examination of these records indicates the cautious and curious nature of first encounters.

significance

centuries of ignorance, prejudice, and opinions lacking evidence or scholarly research have tainted traditional views of the earliest meetings between native americans (first nations in canada) and europeans. students may come to recognize how the later period of continued exploration, settlement, and interaction was influenced by these early encounters from the st. lawrence river to georgia.
