Portuguese

Step-by-step explanation:

Slavery was introduced to North America very early on by the Portuguese, who used slave labor when they tried to set up a trading post in South Carolina early in the sixteenth century. The slaves rebelled, however, and escaped. In 1619, a Dutch trader sold slaves to the Jamestown colony as indentured servants. From this beginning, slavery became part of the American culture for more than two hundred years.
