Erin raised a good question about the miles in middle passage. It obviously differed greatly depending on where they were going: the Old World or the "New" World, and if in the "New" World, whether it went to North America or Brazil or Cuba, etc. I looked up some of our sources but couldn't find the exact distance of the middle passage to any of these places.
Erin also writes that ". . . " The fact is, Europeans did use the Amerindians as slaves first. . . .
