Well, once the Americas were discovered and the colonist found that the soil was agreeable to grow different crops such as tobacco and cotton the colonists realized that they needed people to pick the crops. Originally indentured servants did the hard labor but then when they found that they could get labor by trading goods with African tribal leaders they resorted to importing Africans to the Americas as labor. The tribes in Africa were constantly fighting and whichever side won the losers became the slaves of the winning tribe. However, as Europeans brought valuable things to the continent of Africa such as weapons, salt, gold, and other things the leaders of the winning tribe would give their slaves to the Europeans. There were cases when Blacks captured other Blacks in Africa for the sole purpose of giving them to the European traders. Hopefully this helps.

Answer: The Reformation allowed for a critique of authority.
Explanation:
The Reformation can be seen as a product of ideas not imposed by the Renaissance and Humanism. The proclamation of science, art, and freedom contributed to the spread of criticism and free thought.

For the first time with the Reformation, the man was able to criticize the authorities, i.e., the church, and all the negative phenomena evident in that institution. That is why the Reformation as a movement is extremely important because it has contributed to man's critique and free thought. It was one of the first stages in that process.
