Answer:

Slavery in the Americas was based on race and heredity. Slaves in African culture were given rights, could earn their freedom, and they were not subjected to the same inhumane treatment that Europeans inflicted on their slaves. Slavery in Africa was not hereditary, so children of the slaves were free.
