Because white's could earn lots of money by making them work for them without being paid. African Americans were treated really badly and they thought that they were the most useless things. which I totally don't agree, because if they worked for them and they needed that how could the Africans be useless!
amsw2. You should not make the mistake of thinking that the 'white people' invented slavery, or even that they formed the majority.
This reprehensible practice has been in existence for thousands of years, and today it is probable that a higher proportion of the world's population is held in slavery, than in any previous age.
Much bondage bound not only the slave, but his generations to come.
Today, slavery is still very active on the east coast of Africa, with destinations in the oil states. Sex slavery must be counted in today's total.
Whites were used as slaves, these men, women and children are not to be confused with the indentured servants because they could only legally work for a short period of time, and you couldn't sell their children they were considered unprofitable and disposable. During certain periods of American History their were large numbers of white slaves (usually Irish and Scottish). Many of the slaves where in the west indies as early as 1627. According to 1701 records of the 25,000 slaves in Barbados 21,700 were white slaves.
Because the natives of the lands to where these slaves where imported kept dying off.

There is no way to tell exactly how many slaves were in the United States. The records kept were not accurate.
I am not sure what you mean by "S" since that is not a number, so my answer will be general. Slaves were bought because the people who owned them wanted them to do the work on their plantations. Slavery has been around for thousands of years. The Greeks, Romans, Chinese all had slaves in the ancient world. Today, about 25 million people are kept in slavery as sex slaves or in some other form. Isis even has a manual on slavery.
The slaves were treated horribly by a lot of people but some people were not cruel to the slaves. On slave ships coming to America from Africa it was horrible. The slaves were all chained together chained together and were only fed potatoes. The slaves often died on ships. If a slave died on a ship, they would be dumped. The slaves were kept in the lower part of a ship. It lacked anything clean and was full of infection. Some of the slaves attempted to jump over bored to die.

The people that kept watch on slaves were overseers they were mostly on plantation farms
The Helots (they were the original inhabitants of the area and after the Dorians took control over the territory they were kept as slaves).
There's been slavery in different shapes since earliest recorded human history, and probably some time before that as well. Blacks kept blacks as slaves, white kept whites as slaves, and so on. Vikings kept slaves, called thrals. Part of Europe kept serfs, which were pretty darn close to slaves. Why blacks became slaves to whites in a large scale was basically because they were suddenly very available. American/european traders had more money, trading goods and better weaponry, so once shipping was under control it became easy to nip down to Africa, pick up a boatload, ship it off somewhere and make a bundle of money out of it. Of course it helped that black people looked very differently. That made it easy establish the concept of "us" and "them", to justify why they were so horribly treated.
Slaves were not invented. Slaves were people that were thought of as incredibly insignificant that were used for hard labor.
White people help stop slavery because too many slaves were running away, the whole community of white people who owned slaves were annoyed with other masters who owned slaves. People who were annoyed kept on reporting to the judge that it was affecting their business, so they decided to ban slavery.

Because they told the people that they would break a nail if they did.
Slaves were kept in the West Indies to grow and harvest sugar and molesses.
Slaves often lacked knowledge about their rights, freedom, and opportunities available to them outside of their circumstances. They were often kept uninformed and oppressed by their enslavers in order to maintain control over them.
