Answer:
how can u say that the slave trade is highly heinous?
• Senegambia (Present Day Senegal and the Gambia)
• Upper Guinea (Guinea-Bissau, Guinea and Sierra Leone)
• Windward Coast (Liberia and Côte d’Ivoire)
• Gold Coast (Ghana and east of Côte d’Ivoire)
• Bight of Benin (Togo, Benin and Nigeria west of the Niger Delta)
• Bight of Biafra (Nigeria east of the Niger Delta, Cameroon, Equatorial Guinea & Gabon)
• West Central Africa (Republic of Congo, Democratic Republic of Congo and Angola)
• Southeastern Africa (Mozambique and Madagascar)
The slave trade resulted in the loss of human life, the scope of which will never truly be known. The death toll from more than four and a half centuries of the slave trade due to slave raids in Africa is estimated at 10 million. Approximately 1.2 – 2.4 million Africans died during their transport to the New World known as the “Middle Passage” and many more died upon arrival as a result of their working conditions; the crushing of slave revolts by slave owners and state apparatus alike, diseases, and acts of violence towards them by intolerant local hate groups.
The savage nature of the slave trade led to the destruction of families, individuals and cultures and the vestiges of the immense loss of human capital to the African continent are still felt to this present day. Today, we face an alarming rise in modern day slavery, racial prejudice and religious intolerance.
