The group that i'm going to to be talking about is African Americans. African Americans mostly come from Nigeria/Cameroon. Some oppressions are in 1619 the first African American servant arrived in the American colonies. Less than a decade later, the first slaves are brought into New Amsterdam.
Later in time more slaves are needed because of the creation of the cotton gin in 1793. Which means the slave population for African Americans is increased. But then in 1808, congress bans further importation of slaves. At this point african Americans have been dealing with slavery for a while & their getting tired of it. So by 1831-1861 around 75,000 slaves escape to the north.
