Mostly Africans, but Europeans were quite egotistical, and they tried to enslave as many non-europeans as possible.

icedraptor88 · Answer

In the New World, Europeans forced Indigenous peoples and Africans into slavery. Initially, they tried to enslave Native Americans, but as their populations declined, they turned to Africans, who were forcibly transported across the Atlantic for labor in plantations. This race-based slavery system was driven by economic demand for cash crops and fundamentally altered the social and economic landscape of the Americas.
