Answer:
The Columbus Exchange affected African people by enslaving and forcing them to become slaves in the New World. During the exchange, Europeans started settling in colonies to start a new life by establishing plantations of new cash crops like tobacco. The Columbus exchange brought diseases which caused Natives Indians to die after coming to contact with the Europeans. The lack of the native population led to the rise of the slave trade in the New World. Enslaved African put into plantation as labor in fields.
