Unfortunately this never happened, throughout their horrendous journey across the Pacific Ocean, many potential slaves died due to the awful living conditions. They African slaves were chained down onto the cargo decks of ships and forced to toilet in the same place and sit, or lye in a very small shape or they would be sitting on top of another potential slave. Often throughout the journey slaves would get sick and die of terrible illnesses, or sometimes they wouldn't be fed for days and many died of starvation. For the ones who did survive the journey and made it to be sold on the slave market, rather than being made into American people they were treated like animals. They had to do every task that slave owners were too proud to do themselves, often they would have very little clothes and not many places to bathe. Slaves were made to sleep in barns among the animals they were made to clean up after and would be laughed at and constantly miss-treated by their buyer. .

             People in Britain often get angry about the amount of immigrants that flee to our country. Whites who are against the immigrants usually claim that they are taking jobs from them. These people are the ones who either does not know why Britain has so many immigrants or they just simply failed History. After World War 2 when Britain had the dreadful task of trying to rebuild what had been lost in the consequential devastation they started to run public transport again. However the Britons who had fought in the war didn't want low paying jobs like running a bus and making sure the trains are on time, they felt that they deserved something better. To combat this problem Britain invited huge amount of West Indian people to Britain in order for them to take the unwanted jobs. The West Indians were grateful for the opportunity to work and many of them came and accepted jobs on trains and in busses. At the time people of Britain welcomed the immigrants from the various parts of the British Empire and they were glad to see that the people who helped them fight with Germany were being rewarded in a way that pleased the immigrants and was convenient to British people.
