Origins of Slavery in North America

One of the main jobs of historians is to interpret the past by reviewing primary documents, scholarly secondary sources, and then creating an analysis of this research. After reading your text and reviewing the assigned materials, submit an analysis of the origins of slavery in North America.
You might want to consider the following questions, but you are not limited to them:  What have you previously been taught about the origins of slavery in North America? Why did Europeans in the Americas switch from Native American slavery to African slavery? How did the readings expand your knowledge on the topic?
This assignment should be at least 300 words and contain your reactions or questions about some specific issue within the historical narrative which you find compelling. For full credit, your paper must not simply sum up the reading or repeat points made there. Rather, I’m looking for you to create your own interpretation, explain the emotional content of the piece, or discuss some original insight. Include citations as needed.
