The slave trade prevented the general conversion of people of Africa descent to Christianity before 1750.

Step-by-step explanation:

Along the continent of Africa, slavery was practiced and well-established before the Europeans arrived. The prisoners of war are considered to be slaves mostly. According the slave trade, owning a slave was considered to be a symbol of owning wealth and power. So, there was a trade called as Atlantic Slave Trade, between the Muslim merchants and the Middle East, India and Europe.
