Sierra Escobedo Sugar and slave trade Sugar is filled with sweetness, but the sweetness of sugar was covered up by the saltiness of sweat. Sugar has been started all over the world, from the labor from Africa, markets from Europe and its origins in Asia. The sugar and slavery trade included Africa, Asia and Europe. This was called the triangular trade. Demands, land, capitol and labor were things that drove the sugar and slave trade. One thing that drove the sugar trade was the demand for sugar. Demand is the key point to any business because without the consumers want for the product there would be no business.
In 1800, Benjamin Moseley writer of A Treatise on Sugar With Miscellaneous Medical Observations (doc6) explains that the increased consumption of the demand for sugar and the reason for the increase of consumption for sugar was because of taste. Which makes sense because the more people consume the sugar the demand will increase and if people consumed less sugar the demand would decrease. The chart that’s adapted from Ralph A. Austin and Woodruff D. smith, from “Private Decay as Public Economic Virtue Tooth” (doc 2) shows the growth of British sugar consumption like in 1700 the sugar import was 280. and in 1770 it increased to 1,379. 2. Also in the chart it shows that the population number has increased and a bigger population meant that the consumption and import number to grow. The analysis of document 2 is: a chart adapted from Ralph A. Austen and Wooodruff D. Smith, from the “Private Decay as Public Economic Virtue Tooth” that was published by the Duke University press in 1990 and is a secondary source. Ralph A. Austen and Woodruff D. Smith are relatable because they are both professors and they both have to be tolerant to be good professors. Also since this is a chart, there really can’t be an opinion.

It would be helpful to have a business book from a merchant that imported sugar because it would be useful to know to know how much a merchant would import and sell because it would show the demand of the sugar and the consumption and it would also be helpful if it was a different European country that wasn’t England. The demand for sugar helped drive the sugar and slave trade but it also helped capital too. Land and capitol also helped drive the slave and sugar trade. Land provides raw materials for every product mankind has ever created or consumed and the capitol refers to sums of money or assets put to productive use.
Document A shows a colonial map of the Caribbean. In this map it shows which country ruled what colony. This shows which country owned what land mass. And since Cuba, Dominique Republic and Puerto Rico were great to grow sugar and it was important to know who ruled over them. Sydney W. Mintz, writer of Sweetness and Power: the Place of Sugar in modern history says that sugar became the sweetener to tea, coffee and chocolate and with tobacco and rum it brought competitors for british preference. Since capital refers to sums of money or assets put to productive use the capital would make sure people would buy sugar. 985, Sydney W. Mintz point of view is not bias but is straight forward and shows facts. It would be useful to have a map of a sugar industry because it would help to know who a sugar industry would like since its using the land for the sugar industry. To make the sugar there is a need for labor. Without labor there is no one to make the sugar and without workers to make the sugar there is no business. 1763, John Campbell (doc 4) states that the inhabitants of the sugar colonies were made up of whites and African slaves.

And since there was a demand for sugar there was a need for more workers. Since Europeans wanted cheap labor it equaled into slaves because you didn’t need to pay slaves. At first the Europeans tried to make Native Americans work but the Native Americans couldn’t handle it because they weren’t immune to the diseases from the Old World so it caused Africans to be slaves. Samuel Dickers wrote a letter to a member of Parliament (doc 3) that says that there were a hundred thousand slaves in just the island of Jamaica. The African slaves were brought to what was called the middle passage.
First a slave would be separated from their family and friends then they were forced to march to costal pens, which 30% of them died then into the middle passage which had poor hygiene, dysentery, diseases and bad treatment. The responds were suicide or mutiny on ships. The mortality percent was up to 20% in the middle passage. Over 20 million were in the middle passage but only 12-13 million slaves made it. As a resident of many years in the island of jamaica, samuel Dickers (doc 3) seems trustworthy because he has lived in Jamaica for awhile and he would know how it looks and also its from that time period.
It would be useful to have an autobiography or a diary from a slave that survived the middle passage or from Olaudah Equiano because it would show how the slaves were treated. It would make sense as a young African slave to write about their experiences because it would show how bad the were being treated. Demand, land, capital and labor were things that drove the Sugar and slave trade. Demand: the want for the sugar, land and capital: raw materials and sums of money or assets put to productive use, labor: slavery. The sugar and slave trade changed the world for many years. Without the sugar trade there wouldn’t be a slave trade.
