  • traders come to Africa to buy SLAVES that they will bring across the MIDDLE PASSAGE to the COLONIES so that they can be sold
  • The Work
  • The MIDDLE PASSAGE was the most grueling leg of the TRIANGULAR TRADE between Europe, Africa, and the Americas.
  • The System
  • The SLAVES were sent away to the americas where they were sold to the highest bidder. 
  • The SLAVES were made to work up to 48 hours at a time and often died very quickly
