Slave traders traveled to Africa where they would disgustingly buy people who had been imprisoned for crimes or did not contribute to society. They were then sold to the rich men who had plantations which were growing tobacco, sugar, coffee, and cotton. The slaves were sold at an auction, but before they were sold, they checked over for injuries they had suffered during their awful travel on the middle passage which was the journey from Africa to America. During the auction, one man would be dragged to the podium where white men would inspect him. Then approximately two minutes later, the bidding would start and they would be sold to go and work on the plantations for the white men.
