African slaves were forcibly brought to the Americas from Africa to work on plantations, while Native American slaves were indigenous people who were captured and enslaved by European colonizers. Both groups experienced horrific conditions and treatment, but African slaves were subjected to the transatlantic slave trade on a much larger scale.

Africans were brought to the Caribbean as slaves through the transatlantic slave trade, where European colonizers forcibly captured or purchased Africans from various regions and transported them across the Atlantic Ocean to work on plantations.

Most African immigrants to the Americas came from West Africa, specifically from regions such as Senegal, Gambia, Nigeria, Ghana, and Cameroon. These individuals were forcibly brought to the Americas as part of the transatlantic slave trade between the 16th and 19th centuries.
