KBAC Black History Celebration 2022

African-American history began with the arrival of Africans to North America in the 16th and 17th centuries. Former Spanish slaves who had been freed by Francis Drake arrived aboard the Golden Hind at New Albion in California in 1579. The European colonization of the Americas, and the resulting transatlantic slave trade, led to a large-scale transportation of enslaved Africans across the Atlantic; of the roughly 10–12 million Africans which were sold by The Barbary Slave trade, to European slavers into slavery or servitude in the Americas, approximately 388,000 landed in North America.
