Preferred term

European slave trade  

Definition(s)

  • What is referred to as the “European slave trade” created the division of the black and white races in world history. The capture, exploitation, and dispersal of Africans by European nations, for the purpose of free labor, created a distorted image of Africans that continues to affect the African-European relationship.
