The correct answer is B) Virginia.

The first Africans brought to the New World were brought to Jamestown. Jamestown was the first permanent English settlement in North America (established in 1607). Jamestown was a settlement founded in modern day Virginia. This would be the beginning of Africans being brought to America to be forced into work through the system of slavery.
