Origins and Percentages of Africans Texas annexation The historian Ira Berlin called this forced migration of slaves the "Second Middle Passage" because it reproduced many of the same horrors as the Middle Passage (the name given to the transportation of slaves from Africa to North America) These sales of slaves broke up many families and caused much hardship Characterizing it as the "central event" in the life of a slave between the American Revolution and the Civil War Berlin wrote that whether slaves were directly uprooted or lived in fear that they or their families would be involuntarily moved "the massive deportation traumatized black people both slave and free."

Congress increased the punishment associated with importing slaves classifying it in 1820 as an act of piracy with smugglers subject to harsh penalties including death if caught After that "it is unlikely that more than 10,000 [slaves] were successfully landed in the United States." But some smuggling of slaves into the United States continued until just before the start of the Civil War; see Wanderer (slave ship) and Clotilde (slave ship); British forces gave transportation to 10,000 slaves when they evacuated Savannah and Charleston carrying through on their promise. They evacuated and resettled more than 3,000 Black Loyalists from New York to Nova Scotia Upper Canada and Lower Canada Others sailed with the British to England or were resettled as freedmen in the West Indies of the Caribbean But slaves who were carried to the Caribbean under control of Loyalist masters generally remained slaves until British abolition in its colonies in 1834 More than 1,200 of the Black Loyalists of Nova Scotia later resettled in the British colony of Sierra Leone where they became leaders of the Krio ethnic group of Freetown and the later national government Many of their descendants still live in Sierra Leone as well as other African countries; The revolution could divide families such as William Franklin son of Benjamin Franklin and royal governor of the Province of New Jersey who remained loyal to the Crown throughout the war He and his father never spoke again.

. Because of the power relationships at work slave women in the United States were at high risk for rape and sexual abuse. Many slaves fought back against sexual attacks and some died resisting Others carried psychological and physical scars from the attacks. Sexual abuse of slaves was partially rooted in a patriarchal Southern culture which treated black women as property or chattel. Southern culture strongly policed against sexual relations between white women and black men on the purported grounds of racial purity but by the late 18th century the many mixed-race slaves and slave children showed that white men had often taken advantage of slave women. Wealthy planter widowers notably such as John Wayles and his son-in-law Thomas Jefferson took slave women as concubines; each had six children with his partner: Elizabeth Hemings and her daughter Sally Hemings (the half-sister of Jefferson's late wife) respectively Both Mary Chesnut and Fanny Kemble wives of planters wrote about this issue in the antebellum South in the decades before the Civil War Sometimes planters used mixed-race slaves as house servants or favored artisans because they were their children or other relatives. As a result of centuries of slavery and such relationships DNA studies have shown that the vast majority of African Americans also have historic European ancestry generally through paternal lines.
