It has given rise to Black Lives Matter and racial equality it has also influenced why America and Britain are really rich countries because the slaves increased their output of good the reason I put racial equality is because some people tried to escape and bought guns to start riots and started the American Civil War.

The long-term economic exploitation of millions of black slaves was to have a profound effect on the New World's history. Most fundamentally, it produced deep social divides between the rich white and poor black communities, the consequences of which still haunt American societies now, many years after emancipation.
sorry if this didn't help!!
